A Fine Day for Birding-January 6, 2014-1st Blog of the Year

The Borrego Birders had a fine day, collecting on the two target birds we were after. The Inca Dove was tough but did sing for everyone. Patience paid off at the end as some of the gang got good looks. Highlights of the day included the Inca Dove, Red-shouldered Hawk (see the last blog for a nice close-up), Loggerhead Shrike, 3 Robins, Ring-necked and Rudy Duck, and a Roadrunner. Through a scope it looked like the RS Hawk was eating worms.
