I had hoped to finally see a California Condor on this, my second attempt. First was in Pinnacles National Monument in 2012 and this time at Big Sur. However, over the course of four days I did count 103 species, including the Rustic Bunting and 4 other ABA Lifers: Tricolored Blackbird, Cassin's Auklet, Black-vented Shearwater and the Island Scrub Jay on Santa Cruz Island.
