All,

Last night I received a call from Emily Curtis informing me that a Northern 
Bobwhite has been singing, for about a week, near a house on Matadero Ave in 
Palo Alto so I told her of the one at Ogier Ponds near her home (pity birders 
who aren't on SBB :-).  In any case Frank Vanslager and I dropped by at about 
11:00 AM and although we were unable to refind the bird I do believe that I 
heard it call at least once.  The homeowner informed us that the bird 
actively calls in the mornings and evenings and is usually quite in the 
middle of the day.  It is interesting to note that the home is located quite 
near what my Streets & Trips identifies as Game Refuge 3G.  We were unable to 
verify this information as there are several long private driveways in this 
area.  To bad the bird isn't countable!

Take care,
Bob Reiling, 1:00 PM, 7/2/02
