Great for viewing egrets, herons and geese in the large North Area Pond

This memorial bench is located on the Covell Greenbelt with a great view of the larger North Area Pond. It's also conveniently close to the bathrooms at the Northstar Park parking lot.

The plaque's faded inscription reads, 'In memory of Bruce Maxwell (1948 - 1998) from his friends at Yolo Audubon Society - May you enjoy the birds as much as he did '.

2008-09-11 14:30:35   I am trying to find out if this is the Bruce Maxwell who ran across Death Valley, tennis pro and who once lived in Santa Cruz. I would appreciate it if someone could let me know if this is the same Bruce and tell me how he passed away. tatemiller@gmail.com 831.915.4278 —tatemiller
