# Event Details - **Event Name**: Birding Walk with Mount Diablo Bird Alliance at Mitchell Canyon - **Event Start and End Date**: Fri, 08 May, 2026 at 08:00 am – Fri, 08 May, 2026 at 11:00 am (-07:00) - **Event Description**: Join us for a birding hike at Mitchell Canyon in Mount Diablo State Park.About this EventMount Diablo Bird Alliance and Save Mount Diablo are partnering up for a hike in gorgeous Mitchell Canyon in Mount Diablo State Park. This hike provides birders with a large public area in which to explore birds of several habitats (including chaparral, riparian, oak woodlands, grassland, and rock outcrops). Over 200 bird species have been sighted on the mountain, and it is well known to birders for its superb examples of chaparral birds, spring migrants, and numerous raptors. Highlights of last year's trip included seven warbler species, Lazuli bunting, a pair of golden eagles, Hammond's flycatcher, California thrasher, and many others. If we're really lucky we may have a chance at Bell's Sparrow and Phainopepla. Black-chinned sparrow has been recorded at this site in the past. We'll mostly walk on dirt fire roads, but a portion will be on a single-track trail. Be prepared for a range between flat terrain, lengthy gentle slopes, and short but steep uphill parts. Click for eBird records from the site. Hat, sunscreen, water, and snack are recommended. Camera and hiking poles are optional.Be sure to dress in layers and wear sturdy boots or shoes; bring plenty of water, binoculars (if you have them) sunscreen, and a snack. Heavy rain cancels.***There will be a $6 park entrance fee (exact amount in cash required)Participant Limit: 12 peopleLand: Mount Diablo State ParkRating: ModerateDistance: 3 milesElevation change: 200 feetLeader: Juan Pablo Galvan, Senior Land Use Manager for Save Mount Diablo & Conservation Chair for Mt Diablo Bird AllianceMeet: Mitchell Canyon Staging Area, 96 Mitchell Canyon Rd, Clayton, CA 94517GPS Coordinates: 37.920533, -121.941576Directions: From Clayton Road you will turn onto Mitchell Canyon Road and drive approximately 1.7 miles south until you arrive at the Staging Area gate. if you do not have a State Parks Pass, please be sure to bring cash and fill out a fee envelope at the gate ($6 per vehicle fee).
