Zeva Longley Family Adventures: Trip #3
Zeva Longley Family Adventures hike from the Tennessee Valley Trail to the Beach last Saturday. Tennessee Valley, named for the remnants of the shipwrecked SS Tennessee, contains a bevy of wildlife; from mighty raptors to common swallows, the birds of the valley will keep your eyes on the skies. The skies are not the only place to view wildlife; the valley is teeming with Black-tailed Deer, Coyotes, and on occasion you might even see a Bobcat. River Otters have been spotted in the lagoon. This fairly easy trail will take us down to the beach where we will have lunch. Stroller friendly! "The hike at Tennessee Valley was great!! Beautiful day for such a magical place. We even spotted a great horned owl sleeping by the eucalyptus trees, and plenty of quails with their chicks.” Cecilia Ledesma, Bilingual Nature Educator, WildCare New in 2022, Wildcare’s Zeva Longley Family Adventures are made possible through the Zeva Longley Scholarship for Nature Education.
