California's first twitchable Mangrove Yellow Warbler turned up just down the road from my hotel today, so I headed off to see it. It's a fantastic looking bird, a full male. I managed to get some photos of it, but they weren't very good, so I've included some linked photos taken by photographers that were there at the time.

A juvenile Coopers Hawk was also good value, eating a Mourning Dove in one of the trees in the car park.

Hi, Graham, thanks for stopping by my blog and pointing out that what I mis-identified as a goshawk was actually a northern harrier. As you can see, I'm not the world's best when it comes to id'ing birds and I appreciate the help.
I see you have some great bird photos of your own. Well done! Have a great weekend!
