Natural History Wanderings

Today we went birding at the Albany section of McLaughlin Eastshore State Park. We didn’t get to see the Burrowing Owl. We did get to see 24 species including many waterbirds and shorebirds. Most abundant today were the Green-winged Teal, American Wigeons, American Avocets, and Marbled Godwits.
