Subject: [southbaybirds] The Quack Pack Birdathon Team - Palo Alto Baylands
Hi Everyone!

Today, the Quack Pack Birdathon team visited Palo Alto Baylands. Our best
birds were 2 *Ridgway's Rails* copulating, 1 *American Kestrel* near the
Lucy Evans Nature Center, 1 male *Bullock's Oriole* near the Palo Alto
Treatment Plant, and 2 *Osprey* flying overhead. In total, we had 50
species in 4 hours. There's still time to support this team and/or to
support or join another team. <https://scvbirdalliance.org/birdathon>
All donations
raised go to support SCVBA’s education programs including our Wetlands
Discovery Program <https://scvbirdalliance.org/wetlands-discovery-program>
in which we teach elementary school children all about the importance of
our wetlands with classroom and in-the field education.

Here's our ebird list: https://ebird.org/checklist/S226426518

Happy birding!
Eve Meier (San Jose)
