ESF Kayaking Trip June 8th
See Elkhorn Slough's wildlife from its calm waters as you ride the tide with ESF staff and expert guide Ron Eby. With foggy mornings and sunny afternoons, June is a wonderful time to kayak the slough.
We can provide the kayak, or bring your own.
Ecotone Wildlife Captured!

See more great photos and the details of their findings.
