Hey Everyone!
Today I set out around sunrise at Vasona Lake in search of eastern spring vagrants, while I didn't have any eastern vagrants, I did have a good morning of birding. I saw 61 species, a new high for me and Vasona in the summer and some of the highlights were a female *Black Chinned Hummingbird *hanging out near the flowering eucs here (37.2409066, -121.9715395), an odd *Clark's Grebe *(A first for me at Vasona!), My latest *Yellow Rumped Warbler *in the county ever, and finally a weird large swift that I am 50/50 of it being a *Black Swift. *However I got horrible documentation of the swift which makes it a tough one to confirm. Overall a great day of summer birding! List attached below.
