Back at the Presa

Extremely high water levels at the Presa showed that this has been a good rainy season.  These levels bode well for the wildfowl that will arrive here in another month or so.  The lack of muddy edges, though, meant that there weren't a great deal of waders to be found.  Just Killdeers, Spotted Sandpipers and a bonus, this overflying Long-billed Curlew.



In the scrub it is too early for winter migrants, so the main focus was on common breeding birds such as Cactus Wren and Inca Doves.
