MEMORANDUM
Gilbert G. Walks, Jr., appeals from the district court’s judgment and challenges the 24-month sentence imposed following his guilty-plea conviction for unlawfully trafficking in migratory birds, in violation of 16 U.S.C. §§ 703(a) and 707(b); and unlawfully trafficking in eagles, in violation of 16 U.S.C. § 668(a). We have jurisdiction under 28 U.S.C. § 1291, and we affirm.
Walks contends that the district court proeedurally erred by failing to explain adequately the reasons for imposing his sentence consecutive to a 180-month sentence imposed in an unrelated case. We review for plain error, see United States v. Valencia-Barragan, 608 F.3d 1103, 1108 (9th Cir.2010), and find none. The record reflects that the district court adequately discussed the 18 U.S.C. § 3553(a) sentencing factors and explained why it believed that a consecutive sentence was warranted. See United States v. Fifield, 432 F.3d 1056, 1064-66 (9th Cir.2005).
AFFIRMED.
