Description

Today I took the Lee Vining High School Natural Resources Management Class down to County Park for a brief visit. In the twenty minutes that we were there we saw a winter plumage first year (really bright legs) Bonaparte's Gull, Lundy spotted a Swamp Sparrow and the Broad-winged Hawk flying at a distance. We also saw a large flock (30 plus) of American Crows on the NW shore.
