Red Tail Adventures strives to create enjoyable birding experiences that give participants a deeper insight into the natural world. We are the premier birding guide for Lake Tahoe, the northern Sierra Nevada, and the Great Basin with all three offering fantastic birding opportunities. Our private outings are usually small groups of one to four participants, but larger groups can be accommodated.

Red Tail Adventures can create a private birding experience to fit your desires. Whether you want an outing for a few hours, all-day, or for multiple days, we can customize an outing the way you want.

While the majority of clients are interested in exploring the area to discover the diversity of birds here, targeted outings are also possible. The Tahoe area has one of the most reliable locations to see Gray-crowned Rosy-Finches and area specialties such as Red Crossbill, Pine Grosbeak, and Mountain Quail can also be found. Outings into the Great Basin can focus on specialty birds such as Himalayan Snowcock or Greater Sage-Grouse, Ferruginous and Rough-legged Hawks in winter, and breeders like Broad-tailed Hummingbird, Western Flycatcher, and Virginia’s Warbler.
