Yolo Bypass Wildlife Area, Nature reserve near Sacramento, United States
The 16,000-acre wetland preserve contains seasonal ponds, permanent water bodies, and upland areas that support 200 bird species within the Pacific Flyway migration route.
The California Department of Fish and Wildlife established this conservation area in 1994, transforming agricultural land into protected wetlands for native species.
The Discover the Flyway program brings 4,000 students annually to learn about wetland ecosystems and environmental conservation through hands-on activities.
Visitors can access guided tours on the third Sunday of each month from October to June to observe wildlife and learn about wetland management.
The area includes Tule Ranch, featuring the century-old Umbrella Barn, which now functions as a wildlife observation point within active cattle grazing lands.
