CA ~ Big Morongo Canyon Preserve

Ihave been looking forward to visiting this nature preserve today.  It's one of my favorite places to see birds around Palm Desert.  They have a bird walk on Wednesday's and this is the 3rd year I have attended the walk. It's great to see the same leaders and know that there are always great birds to be seen.  Everyone is very friendly and I love how the area is set up at the host's trailer where you can just sit and watch the birds at the feeders and visit with the birders after the walk is over.  They have some Scrub Jay's that come in and take peanuts from you.
