Run for the Hills! 2026

April 29:

We had a very fun and birdy day with so many favorite moments! We spotted the two Bald Eagles soaring, one right next to the very small-in-comparison Red-tailed Hawk. We found two Yellow Warblers, a first of the season sighting for many of us. Other warblers included 2 Nashville Warblers, a Wilson's Warbler or two, Yellow-rumped Warblers and Orange-crowned Warblers. There were at least a couple of Lawrence's Goldfinch pairs spotted. And, towards the end of our trip, a male Lazuli Bunting was singing from an exposed branch so that we could all finally get a great look at what we had been hearing everywhere all morning. Lastly, a very red and yellow Western Tanager stayed still high in a eucalyptus for us all to enjoy.

Here's our ebird list.
