(Please pass along this important notice to other birding groups in the region.)
PSA: there has been a Wilson’s Phalarope at the Camel Farm in Orange County. The farm owner has been concerned about recent birding activity and plans to fill the ponds on Wednesday to thwart any future birding there. There are plans to meet with the farmer tomorrow (Tue) to discuss concerns. Please consider NOT BIRDING there tomorrow, Tue Apr 25, to avoid escalating the situation. Consider the immediate possibility of losing this seasonal pond habitat. (Message posted on behalf of other concerned birders.)
