Every Thanksgiving, I contemplate the
ancient and global phenomenon of migration. Since the beginning of time,
humans and wildlife have wandered all over the planet in search of hospitable
habitat. Migrations are stimulated by the constant change of environmental
conditions. When habitats become unfavorable, inhabitants must
travel elsewhere.During the fall and winter, certain birds migrate to Orange
County because our Mediterranean climate is so comfortable.
Yellow-rumped warblers, white-crowned sparrows,
dark-eyed juncos, cedar waxwings, hermit thrush, and American robins are
some of the birds that delight us with their presence.
