The drought worsens. Land birds are dwindling, winds are increasing, and minimal reprieve is in sight. San Clemente Island has pulled into the lead. We are desperate for reinforcements.
Here I present a portrait of Zalophus. They are battling (mock-battle? play?) over sleeping space on the marine terrace. Bizarre and amusing creatures:
And one of very few land birds on the island this day was another Least Flycatcher. This is a difficult bird to see on the mainland but they occur here with alarming frequency. This is the 4th found by yours truly. I think my GBRS score must be trickling up.
