Fly me to the Loon!
Sorry, its that fundraising time of year again. I am part of a team (Fly me to the Loon!) competing to see as many bird species as possible in a single day in the Bay Area. Our fundraising is for Golden Gate Bird Alliance which is involved in Bird Conservation, Education and Preserving the Natural Habitat of the Bay Area for all to enjoy. Our goal is to see more than 125 bird species. If you are able to pledge, your support is very much appreciated. Every dollar helps, thank you!

Fly me to the Loon had a great day mainly focused in San Francisco. We started at 5:45 on Mt Davidson and had some early surprises such as Vaux's swift and White-throated swift. We birded all day and ate lunch on the go. Shorebirds such as dunlin, and western sandpipers were numerous a couple of hours after high tide. And there was a bonus short-billed dowitcher. We had some notable misses also such as greater yellowlegs, barn owl (not in the position previously scouted) and Hutton's vireo. However we had a great day, traveling in an electric vehicle the whole day with Nico's incomparable driving, Krish's energy and ebird listing and Angie's birding and fundraising skills. All in all a great day. Thank you everyone so much for your generous donations. It is so so appreciated
