What on earth is a diurnal raptor? It is a raptor (the bird, not the dinosaur) that is active during the day. Chances are, you have seen these birds around your neighborhood soaring above the treeline or perching on a telephone pole. Diurnal raptors include 34 species, such as the Bald Eagle, Peregrine Falcon, and Northern Goshawk. Some of the species found at the Los Cerritos Wetlands and Colorado Lagoon include:
  • Turkey Vulture
  • Cooper's Hawk
  • White-Tailed Kite
  • Northern Harrier
  • American Kestrel
  • Osprey
  • Red-Tailed Hawk
