We spent a very rainy Saturday afternoon in China Camp State Park and spotted a Red-Shouldered Hawk. Due to the rain we ended up heading indoors to a local market we discovered on the way back home. China Camp is a beautiful seaside park full of beaches and trails. We will definitely return on a sunnier day.
Sunday was all about the Marin Headlands. We put some time in on Hawk Hill, and ended up seeing very little. We have an unconfirmed Vireo sighting, but nothing to add to the list. On our way back down we stopped at the visitor center and spotted a Bobcat and a large number of deer.
Upon exiting the headlands we ended up spotting a Red-Tailed Hawk at the entrance to the 5 minute tunnel. It put on a bit of a show for us by fanning out it's back tail feathers, making it very easy to identify.
On our drive home we stopped at the Corte Madera marsh and added a few unique shorebirds to the big year list.
