If you love birdwatching, SF Zoo is a perfect place to see a variety of native and migrating wild songbird species, such as sparrows, wrens, orioles and warblers! Every year, during our annual Audubon Winter bird count, birders identify and count a variety of bird species that stop by our zoo, with some that are common, or maybe even rarely seen. This count gives us a good idea of what bird species visit us, how often we see them and if there is a pronounced decline in their populations.
We invite you to seek out some of our native songbirds over Earth Day Weekend. Some of the hotspots include the African Savanna, the upper lake by Australian WalkAbout, the lower lake by Grizzly Gulch, and throughout our many gardens. See if you can spot some of our resident species, like house sparrows, or a purple finch. You might even see a summer tanager, or spotted towhee, both visible in the spring.
