Observation details
2 reported on the monthly count yesterday (1 adult + 1 juv). Found family group at end of fence (1 adult + 3 juvs). Shy birds usually remained under cover of the tules. The very wet winter filled the ponds with sufficient water that in mid summer the pond had still not dried out. Rare bird for the location and more unusual still that they bred here. My 1st record for the park and Bolsa Chica. Terry Hill said it was only the 2nd time any were found on her long running monthly count of Harriet.
