It was a damp, cool, breezy, wonderful day! Fell a little short of our goal of 140 but still very happy with 135 species, given the conditions and our small team. Tanks Bill, Steve, Elisa, and to all of our supporters!

Amazing day of birding! The weather was a little less cooperative than hoped for, but we managed 135 species - starting at Mitchell Canyon and working our way out to the Delta, then to Richmond areas, Alameda, Oakland, Temescal and back to Valle Vista - finally picking up our Barn owl at Hidden Lakes. Looking forward to next year’s event already!
