You are invited to come out to Kum Bay Xerel for a day of birding along the Sacramento River in South Redding. To get there take the Knighton Road Exit (#673) from I-5, turn west on Knighton Road and make an immediate left on Riverland Drive. Continue for about ½ mile and park at the giant blue geodesic sphere. The first ¾ mile is paved and wheelchair accessible. There is an additional mile of dirt trails on adjacent BLM land. Expect wintering waterfowl on the water and many songbird species along the lush wooded riparian corridor, as well as raptors, including eagles, soaring overhead. New bathrooms are available in the parking lot.
