  1. Hubby and I love to watch "The History Guy". We watched this episode the other day about a real event in California involving crazed Sooty Shearwaters that possibly influenced Alfred Hitchcock's film, "The Birds", and, most interestingly, discussed the prevailing hypothesis for the birds' actions. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=X6Qn6bED5f0

  13. These images are stills taken from a video I recorded this morning, at Hart Park in Bakersfield CA. Apologies for low quality. Am new to bird identifying, just curious about what I saw. Similar in look to Wood ducks or Harlequin ducks, however I distinctly recall seeing a brown belly, separated by a horizontal white line from black/dark-colored back and head. There was also some red on the face. About the same size as the mallards they were swimming with.
