  • In this video I return to Bolsa Chica Ecological Reserve in Southern California, which was one of my most favorite places birding from 2023. I find NEW birds and see some amazing things!

    Would love to get back to the west coast for more birding after our California trip last year. Watching your videos always makes that travel bug a bit noisier, lol.
    Congrats on the lifers and to hear that the visitor's centre was going to take care of getting help for the surf scoter

    Congrats on your two lifers. I would love to see a lot of neat birds on the west coast if I ever visit there, and would have lots of lifers.

    Were you able to report the surf scoter to a local wildlife rehab? If it's covered in oil it will need all the help it can get.

    Fantastic, hoping to visit this location (and also make a video) on my upcoming USA trip. That heat haze is pretty full on in the middle of the day.

    That duck looked like a female surf scoter. I have no idea what kind of flycatcher that was. Empids are tough

      I do! I’ve only shared the link in my Discord tho not on the channel. Just for a bit more privacy 😅
      So if you join the greatest little community on earth you can see it in the discord. Or msg me on insta and I’ll send over the link.
