Park Overview
The San Luis Refuge in the San Joaquin Valley of central California is one of the last remnants of the historically bountiful wintering grounds for migratory waterfowl of the Pacific Flyway. Located in the Bear Creek, Salt Slough and
San Joaquin River floodplain, it hosts a myriad of tree-lined channels and oxbows.
Thousands of acres of wetlands, fed by an intricate set of canals -re managed to produce natural food supplies for migratory waterfowl. San Luis also contains the most extensive network of pristine native grasslands, shrubs and
vernal pools that still remain within the Central Valley.
Hundreds of thousands of mallard, pintail, green-winged teal and
ring-ecked ducks flock into the managed wetlands while the colorful, yet secretive, wood duck lives throughout the tree-lined slough channels.
Herons and egrets nest in majestic oaks and willows, then feed on the refuges abundant frog and crayfish populations. A wide diversity of songbirds, hawks and
owls also use refuge habitat.
