I started birding in 2015 after the lake suffered from multiple eutrophication events caused by several years of below average rain. My initial goal was to find 100 species at the Lake Los Carneros eBird hotspot. As of today I have identified 194 species and have been able to photograph 173 of them along with a few hybrids and exotics.
