Discover Birding at one of Shasta County’s premier birding hot spots! Turtle Bay offers experiences for all levels of birders. This area, located in the center of town, offers a chance to explore oak woodlands, ponds and marshes, open rivers, high bluffs, and riparian habitats, which attract both local and migratory species. Each month offers chances to identify different species and to experience the variations of plumage and song that each season brings.
