Best bird of the day was a first winter CLAY-COLORED SPARROW that we first spotted a little before 10:30 AM just upstream of the next bridge upstream of Mission College Blvd (can't find the street on my maps). We had several good sightings of the bird until we were about half way to the third bridge upstream (Scott Dr.?). The next goodie was a tan striped WHITE-THROATED SPARROW (perhaps the same one seen by Bill) that I saw feeding on the leaves of dark green plants on the west side of the creek about 100 yds upstream of the Mission College bridge. We then spent the next hour plus trying to refind the WTSP, this effort resulted in a third goodie of the day when an AMERICAN BITTERN (previously found by Mike Mammoser) cautiously moved through our search area.
