Field Notes

Description:

Round, gray, brown and white bird.

Habitat:

Coast sage scrub and Chaparral mix

Notes:

I'm not positive on the ID although it seems to fit all of the criteria and this species has been spotted in the area previously. Unfortunately I had my macro lens on at the time but couldn't pass up this beauty.
