Tijuana Estuary Trail Hike
Join us for a bilingual (English/Spanish) birding hike as we explore the Tijuana Estuary! The Tijuana River National Estuarine Research Reserve is a marshland located in the southwestern part of the United States. The flat trail takes you through the reserve and along the Imperial Beach coastline, with the Mexican border in the background. Help us look for local bird species and contribute to the 2024 Border BioBlitz as we encounter other native wildlife and plants in this unique and endangered ecosystem.
