We were very pleased to have an opportunity to lead a field trip sponsored by the Wild Bird Center in Los Gatos. We were blessed by great weather, a skilled group of participants, and cooperative birds. Highlights included seven or eight Clapper Rails at Arrowhead Marsh, a Eurasian Wigeon at Hayward Regional Shoreline, and a Prarie Falcon flyover near the Hayward Regional Shoreline Interpretive Center. Also saw Dowitcher sp.
