11.3.24 California

Today we wen't to Tijuana Estuary! We saw tons more of the shorebirds than yesterday, plus extra species (Whimbrels and Long-billed Curlews) mixed in. We also saw the endangered Ridgeway's Rail! (Though, according to a website, they're near threatened, due to having several large populations.) In fact, we saw at LEAST two of them, probably more. There's so many of them at this place that we even them fighting!
