Better known as "Water Ranch" to birders - and it is the #1 birding hotspot in the state, a title it took from Patagonia SP recently.
I lived a mile away in Val Vista Lakes when this place was just being constructed. I frequently walked the trails when there was very little vegetation and very few people. Lots of both now ... still very pleasant.
My target bird was the Black-and-White Warbler which has been hanging out in the same area - and mostly the same tree - for months now. It's generally hard to get good looks, but I got one decent photo. Lifer! 😁 There is also a very handsome Wilson's Warbler hanging out in the same tree.
