Greetings,
Apologies for the late missive - we returned home late evening after an
outing to Palomar, where we encountered multiple pairs of Mountain Quail
crossing the Thunder Valley loop trail!
Other highlights from the past week's hotspots include:
* Tricolored Heron at Sweetwater Park
* Confirmed breeding codes for Juncos and Anna's Hummingbirds at the
Eternal Hills Cemetery
* Confirmed breeding codes for Red-shouldered Hawk at Azalea Glen
* Confirmed breeding codes for Bushtit and Lesser Goldfinch at Roadrunner
Park
All but 2 stretch goal hotspots were completed from the main list this past
week, and Pine Creek Rd. near S1 is now 100% complete!
In the upcoming week we have one more hotspot that needs just the one week
to be 100% complete!
