Trip List
January 2002
January 18th - Lake Anza, Tilden Regional Park, Berkeley, Alameda County, California
| Much
of my wandering in the East Bay Hills was in search of a Varied Thrush.
I got some great advice and help from the East Bay Birders Circle, but
none of it panned out - until this visit to Lake Anza.
There they were, a male and later a female in plain sight. Gorgeous! I found them in the pumphouse area below the damn. As with many of my trips - 10-noon was the time I birded. Notable was the Red-tailed Hawk the circled overhead. It was the darkest bird I've ever seen, looking almost like a Harris' Hawk. |
