Fall Birding Series - Walk # 12 - Griffith Park O

Fall Birding Series - Walk # 12 - Griffith Park

On Sunday our crew headed into the Santa Monica mountains for a sunset hike!

Along the way we enjoyed views of the city, the Griffith Observatory, Hollywood Sign, and an absolutely bonkers sunset!

The evening capped with a beautiful female Great-horned Owl digiscoped through my crystal clear @kowasportingopticsus T88 scope!

We also saw some large flocks of American Robins returning to their roost somewhere in North East LA!

Thanks everyone for a great walk and thanks to @n_o_c_s for the loaner optics!

@n_o_c_s for providing some great optics for our peeps! 🤙

Plus the SloMo video of the Osprey was captured through my crystal clear @kowasportingopticsus 🔭✨

10th outing on our #FallBirdingSeries at @mlzbirds

10th outing on our #FallBirdingSeries at @mlzbirds @occidentalcollege was a blast!

Huge thanks to everybody who joined us on our medium rainy adventure! Despite the atmospheric river moving through California, we observed 27 species during our walk to the Moore Lab!

We had a blast learning about some of the 65,000 individual specimens representing nearly 2,000 species of birds! 😱

Huge thanks to Diego for sharing his vast knowledge and good vibes with our group!
