Wrentit Temescal Canyon 078

What was the Presbyterian Campgrounds ( now managed by the Santa Monica Mountains Conservancy .... the folks who have TWO photo enforced stop signs in the park, and recently raised the parking fee from $8 to $10. Parking was free before they took over) has been a pretty good place to bird watch. There is a creek that has water year round.

W9 and I had a lot of fun trying to photograph a few Wrentits. They are known for their "bouncing ball" call. At times they rattle. I think we are getting better at making the ID of a bird, even if the call is only a rattle.
