Hi Everyone!
Edward Rooks, Carlos Mendoza and I led a Santa Clara Valley Bird Alliance field trip to the Santa Clara Valley Water District Headquarters on Almaden Expressway. We had a very exciting day with both the *Common Loon* and the *Red-throated Loon*. The *Bald Eagle* made a visit (I heard the bird was there yesterday as well.). We were able to spot at least 3 *Wilson's Snipe* and the *Scaly-breasted Munia* working on a nest. Plus the ducks and other water birds were beautiful - *Common Mergansers, Common Goldeneyes, and Buffleheads*...
