For 27 years, Lodi\u2019s Sandhill Crane Festival has celebrated the return of the cranes. Between October and February, Sandhill Cranes can be seen during the day feeding in fields throughout the California Delta<\/a>. In the evening, the cranes congregate in flooded fields at the Woodbridge <\/a>Ecological Reserve<\/a>, Staten Island<\/a>, and Cosumnes River Preserve<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

People return to our festival year after year because it is one of the best in California. The festival draws more people to Lodi than any other event. It\u2019s hard to say if that\u2019s because of the excellent presenters and workshops, the many tours, the chance to shop in the exhibit hall, art show, or just to meet up with like-minded friends. One thing is certain; the Sandhill Cranes are the big attraction! <\/p>\n\n\n\n

A hundred years ago these magnificent birds darkened the skies over marshes in the Delta. Today, their numbers have been reduced to thousands. Because of this, the Lodi Sandhill Crane Association takes great pride in its efforts to promote crane conservation through our festival. We invite you to explore the wildlife refuges and farmlands in our area to experience first hand one of nature\u2019s spectacles.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
