So far March has been pretty good to me, and I've managed to strike a few more "unusual" birds off the list.
I visited Pt. Roberts a couple of weeks ago and discovered it's a great place for Sanderlings:
No luck with the Rhino Auklet yet, but maybe I'll go back in a month or two and try again. (BTW Pt. Roberts is also very good for Brandt's Cormorants fly-bys)
I'd never managed to find the Pigeon Guillemot before until last weekend (Lonsdale). The weather wasn't the greatest but it's a start.
And last week, Say's Phoebe showed up at Iona (maybe it's still there)!
I had pretty much given up on the Mourning Dove due to the huge numbers of Collared-Doves, but yesterday there were a few at Richmond Nature Park.
And last but not least, a Townsend's Solitaire at Terra Nova:
Thanks for looking!
