Woodson Bridge in California

We stayed a few nights just 6 miles east of Corning right along the Sacramento River. This photo was taken through the back window of the trailer. The RV Park, Woodson Bridge RV Park is an older park and has a lot of permanent trailers. There is some great fishing on the river and hence many trailer are set up as fish camps and lots of boats. The park is very serviceable and has Butterfinger ice cream bars for sale in the little store.

Adjacent to the park is a county park and adjacent to that county park is the Sacramento River State Natural Area. The area has some really huge, massive California valley Oak trees and a wonderful trail that meanders through some fabulous habitat. We did not find a lot of birds but could only imagine what the spring migration might be like. We did see a flock of Cedar Waxwings, Downy Woodpecker, Acorn Woodpecker, a Varied Thrush amongst a flock of Robins, Ruby-crowned Kinglet and other usual species. There is a also a small campground that is in the natural area with some decent looking sites but no hookups. The Natural Area is well worth a stop and look about.
