Another wonderful day at Bahia Grande; additional species for the 3rd day
in a row.. highlights were Cactus Wren, Orange-crowned Warbler, and
Grasshopper Sparrow.
The icing on the cake was the pair of Aplomado Falcon in the center of the
road sharing a rodent.
Actually had a few minutes of sunshine.
