I've lived in the state for 8 years now, and I've seen them once, and that was going 65 over the grapevine on I5. That's great that you got to see them. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And the highlight of the day, an absolutely STUNNING adult male Western Spindalis on Pelican Island. Beautiful bird and only my 5th code 4. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
