Birds of 2013: Week 27

Last October we took a road trip. One of the places we visited was the California Academy of Sciences. There were many great exhibits, but my sole purpose for going there was to see their rainforest dome. It did not disappoint. It was really quite awesome. Inside the rainforest birds flew around freely.

I haven’t been able to get out birding these days, so I don’t have any new birds to add to my list.
