One of my favorite things to do in California is birding with the Big Morongo Canyon Preserve group. It's like a family reunion every time I visit.
This Wednesday morning nothing of the extraordinary species showed up in my binoculars, but it was a sweet relief to see my favorite desert birds like the White-crowned Sparrow, California Thrasher and Roadrunner. Oh, and, of course, the Gambel's Quail. I've missed its soft chi-ca-go-go, chi-ca-go-go.
White-crowned Sparrow One thing I enjoyed on this bird walk was introducing the desert species to a visiting birder from Guatemala. Every bird was new to him. That is always fun (that was me just over a year ago.)
