Hi Everyone!
Today, Edward Rooks, Amanda Newlove and I led a SCVBA field trip to Calero Reservoir. Of course, our favorite bird moments were the rushing *Western and Clark's* *Grebes*. But we also had a really nice variety of raptors including 2 *Merlins*, 2 *Cooper's Hawks*, several *Red-tailed Hawks*, 2 *White-tailed Kites*, and a *Bald Eagle* that passed by repeatedly. The *Rock Wren* continues in the dirt parking lot to the right as you enter the park and the *Turkey Vultures* were still working on a deer carcass near the road.
