Hi, all!
Just four of us poked along the roads around Laguna Seca Ranch on this
beautiful fall day, with several "winter" birds showing up including Eastern
Phoebe, House Wren, Western Meadowlark, Orange-crowned Warbler, and even
White-fronted Geese! Several kettles of Turkey Vultures streamed through
with a few Broadies and accipiters mixed in, and there were lots of pretty
Scissor-tailed Flycatchers and Pyrrhuloxias. The only "write-up" was the
resident "Fuertes'" Red-tailed Hawk which always seems to be there! J A few
pictures can be seen on my Facebook page:
