Hi Friends,
On Saturday February 24, fifteen birders walked around the San Joaquin Marsh & Wildlife Sanctuary in Irvine CA. The weather was perfect, and we found 76 different bird species. We birded almost 4 hours.
There were lots of Northern Shovelers, American Coots, Ruddy Ducks, Black-necked Stilts, and Western Grebes. The best birds we found were the Yellow-crowned Night Heron and the Green Heron.
Take a look at Steve Ellis’s eBird checklist: ebird.org/checklist/S162809749
Many thanks go out to field trip leader, Jennifer Falconer, our eBird compiler, Steve Ellis, and to our wonderful photographer, Isabelle Davignon.
Thanks,
