Natural History Wanderings

Today the Fall Birding the Bay Area Class went to Lands End and Sutro Heights Park in San Francisco. I recorded 45 bird species. The bird of the day was a Palm Warbler in Sutro Park. Other notable sightings included a Red-breasted Sapsucker, Red Crossbill and a personal favorite Black Oystercatcher. Also seen was the river otter that has been seen for a few weeks in the Sutro Baths area and a racoon high up in a tree.
