Perris, CA (February 2, 2023) — Eastern Municipal Water District (EMWD) invites you to join us for our popular and free bird walks at our San Jacinto Valley Wetlands.

The tours provide guests the opportunity to see some of the more than 120 species of birds that call the Wetlands home throughout the year, including during the migratory season. It is not uncommon for a Bald Eagle to be seen throughout the winter months.

The tours take place at EMWD’s San Jacinto Valley Regional Water Reclamation Facility, located at 770 N. Sanderson Avenue, San Jacinto, CA.
