Hi Birders, Wanted to pass on some access information for Blue Lakes Sewage ponds off of Gowen Road.
The area is open for birding but the access is only to be on foot. The dirt road that runs on the east side of the ponds looks to be open to driving but is not. They are fine with the area being birded from that dirt road but on foot only. You can park along the side of the paved road leading up to the dirt road that can be entered from the trailer court neighborhood. There are two posts (concrete?) you can walk between. Also, if there is ever an open chain-link gate at any of the ponds, it is not ok to go inside the chain-link.
If the next few people that visit could note the "walk-in access only" on their ebird checklist notes it would be helpful in spreading the word.
