This post is a throw back to the end of May when we were in Bishop, CA for our trail race. The check in area was the Millpond Recreation Center which proved to be a fruitful birding spot too! In just half an hour, Peter and I added 6 new species to our list with help from spotters Dean and Lynn. The most exciting were the Western Tanagers, new for both teams and cover birds of Sibley’s What It’s Like to Be a Bird guide.
I found it interesting to learn more about Tanagers HERE.
