Our first official bird tour of the 2016 season, and it rained from the
time we left the Visitor Center until we returned, but we had a great tour.
Highlights included Yellow-rumped Warbler and very handsome Lincoln
Sparrow.
Gulls of 2 varieties were in abundance with 1 lone Herring Gull. Pelicans
were present today, too.
We look forward to seeing you on a tour soon.
