There are 4 parking areas for Ranch Ponds.
I urge anyone who sees a rare bird in Golden Gate State Park or the Ralston
State Wildlife Area to let the park rangers or naturalist know.
I helped make up the bird list years ago when I lived next to the park. If
the park knows about the bird, someone will post the sighting at the
Visitor’s Center.
