This week (September 2020) on The Birding Voyage we explore Point Loma in San Diego, California. First I went to the Fort Rosecrans Cemetery, then Cabrillo National Monument, and lastly the Famosa Slough. I saw over 50 species of birds and really enjoyed my time there. The weather was perfect and the views were amazing.
