April 18, 2015 Saturday Bird Walk
We tried to visit only places with paved paths due to the recent rain. The rain during the walk didn't help our bird activity, but that's part of the experience. It was great to see more returning birds like the Franklin's Gulls, mourning doves, all the swallows, and our Bird of the Day. The warblers will be back before you know it!
