Hidden Valley Bird Walk - Thursday, October 25th, 2012

This morning's walk was full of birds, mostly drifting eastward across the island. American Robins and American Goldfinches dominated the skies, while highlights in the bushes included two Baltimore Orioles. Perched raptors gave some unusually close views, including full-frames of Peregrine, Merlin and Northern Harrier.  Leaders Mike Crewe and Chris Marks.
