Bolsa Chica Wetlands - This is one of the best bird photography and viewing areas in Orange County, California. This was once a vast wetland area but now less than 10% of the wetlands remain in this area. This has caused many birds to find other areas to rest and feed during migration and probably causes some stress on species. The wetlands has recently been restored.
