A female Mallard duck is just one
of the many animals that can be found in the creek..

We want to know about your wildlife sightings in the San Leandro
Creek watershed. Whether you're hiking in the upper watershed in
the Oakland Hills, at a city park along the creek, or strolling
at Arrowhead Marsh, let us know what wildlife you're seeing in the
air, the water, or on land by emailing Watershed Awareness Coordinator
Laurey Hemenway at laureyh@fslc.org.

Learning
about the ecosystem of the creek and surrounding watershed
|
Friends of San Leandro Creek would like to thank everyone who
participated in the Watershed Festival on April 30. This year
the Hayward Shoreline Interpretive Center, East Hills Green Teens,
Bancroft Middle School Jazz Band, Rock Steady Juggling, California
Jewels, and The Principled Academy all helped to make this event
both fun and educational. The City of San Leandro Environmental
Services was on-site and collected 75 pounds of technotrash and
1200 pounds of household batteries. Thanks again everyone!
