All,

This morning Frank Vanslager and I checked out the area around Lake Ranch 
Reservoir in Sanborn-Skyline County park.  The reservoir itself had about 60 
RING-NECKED DUCKS, ~40 AMERICAN WIGEON, 30 plus MALLARDS, 3-5 BUFFLEHEAD, 2-3 
PIED-BILLED GREBES, a couple AMERICAN COOTS and a female GREEN-WINGED TEAL.  
Birding around and beyond the reservoir was spotty with occasional flocks 
yielding a surprising number and variety of birds.  First birds seen (other 
than the ducks) were a juvenile SHARP-SHINNED HAWK, four PURPLE FINCHES and 
DARK-EYED JUNCO (many seen during the day).  We also had numerous AMERICAN 
ROBIN, many calling VARIED THRUSH (only one female seen well), a small flock 
of CEDAR WAXWING, several BEWICK'S WREN, several CHESTNUT-BACKED CHICKADEE, 
RUBY-CROWNED KINGLETS, a "pair" of WRENTIT, a couple calling HERMIT THRUSH 
(only one well seen), male DOWNEY and NUTTALL'S WOODPECKERS.  On our way back 
to the car Frank picked up on small mixed flock of CB Chickadee, Rudy-crowned 
Kinglets and a possible Yellow-rumped Warbler.  Shortly thereafter he located 
at least three BROWN CREEPERS (two of them having a tumbling arial dogfight). 
 A great day for birding but we had none of the hoped for county goodies :-{(

Take care,
