Title: Newport Beach CA Birds
Post by: winz on April 26, 2015, 02:50:27 PM

Here are some birds not normally seen in the GTA area.

I was out in Newport Beach CA back in March, and got these shots at the San Joaquin Wildlife Sanctuary, except for the Vermilion Flycatcher which was at the Irvine Valley College campus.

Thanks Rotarran.  Jo-Anne, I was able to incorporate some birding into a business trip.  I'm heading down to Point Pelee next weekend, hoping to catch some lifers.
