Here are some images from my recent trip to
San Diego California. These images are some of the birds seen on Day 1, which was spent in the north near areas such as
Mission Bay Channel,
Quivira Way,
Quivira Basin,
Famosa Slough and
Robb Field .
I was especially pleased to finally see a
Long-billed Curlew, a bird that I had not seen until this trip, so it was a LIFE BIRD! San Diego, was fantastic and I see myself returning in the near future to do more land birding, as the few days I had were all too short for the amount of birding I did. My friend Heydi Lopes who came with me on the trip agreed that although we birded non stop immediately after arriving, we felt we could have done somethings better with regards to how we approached the land birding. But you learn and some birds should be for another time. Lots more images to come including many from multiple days at sea.
