Walk lasted between 12:00 and 14:05

 

Viveca led this walk and they had a great one, getting 31 species. In her words: “We had a fun walk starting out with Cooper’s Hawk and Red-shouldered Hawk duking it out about habitat. The highlight was the soaring gulls as well as both White-throated Swift and Rough-winged Swallow. And the weather wasn’t too hot.” I can add that they set a record for 100 percenters with 14. The predicted number was 25.1 and the record was 35. Anytime you get 30+ species, it’s a great walk. Good for them.
