Some 1,000 eggs will be available for children to find at the Cache Creek Nature Preserve later this month.
Just make sure to not mistake the colorful, plastic eggs for the real things. The geese, ducks and other birds at the Preserve might take offense.
The Nature Preserve is planning a Sunday, March 31, Easter Egg Hunt for children ages 3 and under to between 7 and 10 years old. The hunt is scheduled to begin at 10 a.m. and will end when all eggs are recovered. There are no sign-ups necessary.
Located at 34199 County Road 20 west of Woodland, the preserve is considered a microcosm of Northern California habitats, including wetlands, marsh, riparian, oak savannah and grassland.
At around 130 acres, it would be hard to find the 1,000 eggs if scattered across the Preserve. That's why staff biologist Felicia Wang explained the hunt will be confined around the office complex and Memorial Garden. That still leaves plenty of places for children to search.
The eggs themselves, will be filled with candies (although no chocolate out of fear it would melt).
There will even be some "special eggs" hidden containing small prizes. For more information, go to the Cache Creek Conservancy's website at cachecreekconservancy.org; or telephone 661-1070.
