I decided to try my luck again and look for migrants and CLAPPER RAILS. As usual, there were 10 CLAPPER RAILS displaying on the trails offering great views. They flew away when I approached them. I also found 2 FORSTER’S TERNS and 5 RUSTY BLACKBIRDS. Watch out for the CANADA GOOSE at the end of the trail – it was defending it’s nest and tried to bite me.
Great day to be out.
