We went birding on the morning of July 4 at Prado Regional Park in Chino. The most exciting find for us was the Vermilion Flycatcher. This one was feeding two juveniles. 
The western grebes were also caring for a juvenile.

Whe we first arrived, we saw a few common yellowthroats and later we saw the lesser goldfinch.

On the way out we spotted a few Nutmeg Mannikins.

All in all, it was pretty good birding for a quick trip to a nearby park.
