Penasquitos Bird Hike – Saturday, March 23, 2024 – eBird Report

Written By Friends Penasquitos.

Our early Spring Bird Hike in Penasquitos Canyon East rewarded us with the combination of Fall-Winter migrating birds still in the Preserve along with some early Spring-Summer migrating birds that had arrived. One of the best observations was the Yellow-rumped Warbler male in his breeding plumage perched on a branch – singing his breeding song before heading to northern climes!

Here’s the eBird report:
