This year, the Swan Festival is going all-in on\u00a0guided tours<\/em>\u00a0\u2014 no central hub, no presenters. Instead, our staff and board will be out in the field at every tour, supporting guides, connecting with partners, and engaging with our community. We may bring the hub back in future years, but for now, we\u2019re excited to meet you out on the land!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Celebrate the return of the graceful Tundra Swans and other migrating waterfowl that make their winter home in the verdant rice fields and wetlands in the North Sacramento Valley.\u00a0 As part of the Pacific Flyway<\/a>, the Central Valley<\/a> alone supports nearly 8 million wintering waterfowl!\u00a0 Just before winter sets in, more than 100,000 Tundra Swans migrate from their remote breeding grounds in the Arctic, along the Pacific Flyway, to spend winter in California. Our rural region contains vitally important habitat that supports a variety of birds and other wildlife that are under constant threat from habitat loss.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Enjoy bird-watching tours, explore the beauty of local flora and fauna, hike in the mysterious Sutter Buttes volcanic range, or visit a local rice farm.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Sutter Buttes Regional\u00a0Land Trust<\/a>, along with many public and private partners, are actively working to protect,\u00a0restore, and enhance habitat areas that support wildlife. To learn more about the land trust, visit\u00a0www.sutterbutteslandtrust.org<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n
