Hi Everyone!
This morning, as part of my Backyard Birds and Coffee Birdathon Team, I birded Heintz, Belgatos, and Los Capitancillos. It was so windy and misty, the little birds were hard to find. I did get good looks at *Wrentits* at both Heintz and Belgatos. *California Thrashers* were heard only at Belgatos. And at Los Capitancillos I had my FOS* Warbling Vireo*. There were surprisingly few ducks on the west-side of Los Capitancillos.
There's still time to support my team here <https://scvas.app.neoncrm.com/np/clients/scvas/campaignTeam.jsp?campaignId=175&teamId=124&>. Or if you'd like to join either of my other two teams or any other birdathon team, check out our birdathon page <https://scvbirdalliance.org/birdathon>. The donations SCVBA receives from the Birdathon go a long way to support the education programs of our organization. In particular, our Wetlands Discovery Program is something to be proud of. This program, which has been running for over 30 years, teaches wetlands ecology through in-class and outdoor learning to over 2000 elementary school kids each year.
