It was a wonderful morning of birding at Santa Ana NWR this morning. A great
group of folks enjoy good looks at several Altamira Orioles; the Common
Pauraque inhabited its usual spot, and a Northern Beardless-Tyrannulet put in a
brief appearance. Only one bird walk left in 2016 - tomorrow morning at 8:30am
- meet at the Visitor's Center.
