Hi, all!
Did the monthly "back road" survey at Santa Ana NWR this morning;
highlights include a Great Horned Owl on the nest, Beardless Tyrannulet at the
Jaguarundi Crossing, a Merlin batting overhead, a Pine Warbler along the Resaca
Trail (where was he last year??? ;-)) and lots of ducks and shorebirds at
Cattail Lakes! A few photos are at the link here:
