Volunteer Habitat Restoration Day at Eden Landing
Join ecologists with the San Francisco Bay Bird Observatory (SFBBO) to help restore habitat for birds and other wildlife at Eden Landing Ecological Reserve in Union City! Volunteers will get to tour a brand new South Bay Salt Pond Restoration Project restoration site that was just seeded and planted by SFBBO in fall-winter 2022-2023. The restoration site is not normally accessible to the public, so volunteers will get special access to a restricted area while helping us remove invasive weeds like wild radish, mustard, and poison hemlock.
Save The Bay Habitat Day at Eden Landing
Join Save The Bay on the shoreline at Eden Landing Ecological Reserve to help take care of their brand new site along the road to the kayak launch.

Fall Least Tern & Snowy Plover Habitat Event
Join the San Francisco Bay Bird Observatory to help enhance habitat for snowy plovers and least terns!
Volunteers will gather at the California Department of Fish and Wildlife's Eden Landing Ecological Reserve in Hayward to remove predator perches, trim overgrown vegetation, and spread oyster shells to help camouflage the protected birds from predators. These activities will help improve the breeding success of these protected species.
Eden Landing supports a large proportion of the Bay's plover and least tern breeding each year.
Tern up for California Least Tern Conservation! Least Tern Colony Viewing
Join San Francisco Bay Bird Observatory biologists at Eden Landing Ecological Reserve to view one of only six San Francisco Bay breeding colonies of endangered California least terns.
The group at the free event will look for adults incubating nests, young downy chicks being fed by their parents, older feathered chicks running around the colony, and fledglings learning to fly.
