A quick business trip to the Silicon Valley gave me a little time after-hours (and before hours) to capture some wonderful birds. Slowly turning into a birder - 18 new species confirmed in two days, a couple more I'm still trying to figure out. Parks visited include Bayfront Park - Menlo Park, Bayfront Park - Millbrae and Coyote Point County Park.
