Review & FAQ:

The Yolo Bypass Wildlife Area is a pristine wildlife area and birder’s paradise within the Yolo Bypass in Yolo County. Managed by the California Department of Fish and Wildlife with the aim of preserving the habitats in the Yolo Basin, the 16,600-acre Yolo Bypass Wildlife Area is home to scenic farmlands and lush wetlands that attract a myriad of bird species ranging from songbirds, waterfowl, and pheasant to migratory birds, and birds of prey. Around 4,000 acres of the area is currently farmed for domestic and wild rice, which offers a winter buffet for migrating ducks and geese and makes for excellent bird watching year-round.
