Birding the OC: Eurasion Widgeon at Tewinkle Park and swallows at San Jaoquin wildlife refuge.

A Eurasian Widgeon had been reported at Tewinkle Park in Costa Mesa and that would be a life bird for us. Mike had to fly out of John Wayne so he stopped by before his flight. The bird was easy to spot in the "cement pond" and easy to photograph.

There's not much to do at Tewinkle other than see the Eurasian Widgeon, so there was a little time to drop by San Jaoquin Wildlife Refuge where the tree swallows were out in force.
