I spent the morning of 29 April 2023 (6:00 AM to 1:45 PM) looking for birds along part of the south shore of the Salton Sea and at a few select locations in the Imperial Valley. I started the day at Fig Lagoon and Sunbeam Lake then drove west to near the southeast corner of El Centro. After spending time near the southeast corner of El Centro unsuccessfully looking for a Brown Thrasher photographed there on 27 April, I drove north to the east end of Morton Bay. After spending time at the east end of Morton Bay, I drove southwestward to the Salton Sea National Wildlife Refuge HQ. At the Salton Sea National Wildlife Refuge HQ I only looked around the entrance parking area. I then drove southwestward along the seawall to the west end of Young Road. From the west end of Young Road I drove southwestward into Unit 1 of the Salton Sea National Wildlife Refuge. After spending time at Unit 1 of the Salton Sea National Wildlife Refuge, I drove southward through Calipatria and along Forrester Road and I-8 to the Rio Bend Golf Course, stopping at Sheldon Reservoir on the way. I then drove west to San Diego, stopping to look at Sunbeam Lake and Fig Lagoon on the way. Mostly clear with no wind, and with temperatures ranging from 65 to 100 degrees.
