Saw my first Western Kingbirds of 2000.
Got some great photos of a Cactus Wren, and hopefully, of the returning
Ash-throated Flycatcher.
Almost
all the waterfowl has left the marsh, but I was surprised to find a small
flock of Redheads. Couldn't
find the Vermillion Flycatchers, but suspect that they're still around.
