Bob Wisecarver

On May 29, 2008, Bob Wisecarver passed away.  He was a person of intelligence and originality.  He applied those qualities to a number of projects to benefit wildlife and the natural environment.  He conceived and led the quail habitat project near Borges Ranch and the project to improve riparian habitat in Lime Ridge Open Space.   He was a tireless worker on his own and other people's Open Space projects and a leader who attracted volunteers to help him achieve his vision.  He was active throughout northern California in creating habitat for bats.  

In recognition of his contribution to wildlife habitat in the Shell Ridge Open Space, the City of Walnut Creek named the area he worked in as the "Bob Wisecarver Quail Habitat Restoration Area".
