Prosser Reservoir is one of several interesting areas on Highway 89 just North of I-80. These areas would include Sagehen Creek, Alder Creek and even Boca Reservoir, though its access is best from the Boca exit on I-80. The Eastern slope of the Sierra's affords a distinctly different forest and avian population. To reach these areas exit I-80 at the Eastern most Truckee exit and take Highway 89 North. The second road is the Prosser Dam Road. The reservoir is about 8 miles down this Road. The Creeks lie further North with Roadside parking areas.

The Birds that may be seen here include some waterfowl such as White Pelicans, Mergansers, Ducks, Gulls and Geese. The Horned Lark is seen in the open areas, while the Streams harbor a variety of Warblers, Thrushes, and Vireos.
