Another trip to the Yolo Bypass area and what a difference a week can make. Last week there was a lot of water around, but this week, the rice fields were drained (presumably by the farmers) and there was only a few areas of water. This produced quite a different array of birds. There were no Ibises this week, nor did I see any Ruddy Ducks or Stilts or Avocets and there seemed to be a significant greater number of Northern Shovelers.
New birds this week were:
Green Winged Teal
Cinnamon Teal
Northern Pintail
Yellow-headed Blackbird
