This morning I went out to the Shields River Valley with Sam and Jabe. The main goal was shorebirds; however, the high water levels of the Cottonwood Reservoir were not conducive to viewing any shorebirds other than both Yellowlegs, a lone Willet and a single American Avocet.
We continued north towards Ringling, and we were able to pick up many Golden Eagles and 4 Ferruginous Hawks (totally awesome!!!). The Regal Buteo never disappoints the observer. There were 3 adults and 1 juvenile.
