This past December, prominent outdoors journalist Tom Stienstra wrote in the San Francisco Chronicle about the valuable habitat the Sacramento National Wildlife Refuge Complex is providing for birds this time of year. In the article, Stienstra captures the incredible number of birds utilizing the Refuge, writing “Then, as the last light of the day faded to gray, the ducks and geese at the Sacramento National Wildlife Refuge rose up, filled the sky and then flew directly overhead in a 20-minute stream as they ventured out of the refuge.”

A video of Stienstra’s trip to the Refuge is posted on his Facebook page (scroll down to the December 11, 2015 posting) at: www.facebook.com/tomstienstraoutdoors
