Los Angeles named Birdiest County in US
This is pretty great - LA County was just named the “birdiest county” in the US. It’s a fun and informal count of those things with feathers, and we have got a lot of ‘em. Good news, especially considering the past month: the devastation of two Tern colonies, and then there’s still that whole thing about the plans to build a freeway overpass through one of our most beautiful wildlife refuges.
I participated (just the tiniest bit) in this bird count, so I’m really thrilled to see LA County won the title.
It is, as they say, a good start. But there’s a lot more work to do.
