Heading out west for a few

Heading for California for a few days of work before heading back on Friday for the big sit event at Riverbend. The weekend weather looks to be good for sitting out all day, if nit a big migrant fall but it is always a great day.
California will be the ultimate in 'bare naked birding' no optics and no real time to bird, I'll see what I get the chance to find.

Later post - so far so good, western and California gull on posts by car rental and a yet-to-be- researched tern over the harbor. This evening at the parking lot outside Whole Foods. Brewers Blackbirds were gathering to roost, in the small trees and were pretty tame. Several gathered on the rood of a pickup near where I was parked.
At Dusk around the hotel, a couple of black Phoebe were watched and heard calling.
