Join the Estuary Program and Morro Coast Audubon Society for a guided birding tour through Sweet Springs Nature Preserve.

Sweet Springs Nature Preserve offers an ideal setting for birding, with two viewing platforms and meandering trails that provide panoramic views of the estuary, wetlands, and mudflats—prime habitat for a variety of shorebirds. The on-site pond attracts ducks, while the surrounding diverse vegetation supports many breeding and migratory bird species during the spring season. The walk covers approximately 1 mile on level boardwalks and dirt paths, making it an easy and enjoyable stroll for all experience levels.

Join us for a guided tour of this special place, see some of the 37 species of birds that breed here, and learn how spaces like this are critical in protecting and preserving habitats for future generations.

In recognition of Women’s History Month, join us to learn about the women who lived in the Rosa Butron de Canet de Simler adobe. Aside from the adobe’s namesake, Rosa Butron, both Waterman Village and the Mary Gail Black Neighborhood Park honor women as well. Who were these women, and what do we know about their lives and contributions?

Hear firsthand accounts, personal interactions, and recollections of the adobe’s last residents and those who came before, as well as the future of the site, featuring Lenore Erickson and Andy Pease alongside Smart Share staff.
