Before I moved north to Portland, I lived in San Francisco. Patch birding is rewarding because the birds become familiar, as do the changes across the seasons. There is satisfaction in the everyday. But patches can also provide the unexpected. When I was a new birder, I adopted Pillar Point Harbor near Half Moon Bay as a “patch.”.
