In this webinar Richard Tejeda, Founder of Saved By Nature, will provide an overview of the native fish we have in our local watersheds on the SF Peninsula and in the South Bay, including local salmon and trout species. An avid angler, fish conservationist and environmental educator, Richard will share the characteristics and ecology of our most common native fish species. We'll discuss where these fish live, where they used to live, and some stories of the restoration work that is underway to restore their habitat.
