Also, an adult accipiter was perched along the slough. It looked like a Sharp-Shinned at first glance, but flew before I could get on it for a confirmation. The small dredge island out front of the EEC had WESTERN, GLAUCOUS-WINGED, HERRING, CALIFORNIA, and RING-BILLED GULLS. There were 54 MEW GULLS on the water and another 160+ on the water of salt pond A18. EARED GREBES were numerous as well. I stopped at 1740 Technology Dr to look for Black Phoebes. I found an adult along the side of a building behind the parking garage. When it caught a "bug", it flew directly towards the parking garage over a distance of about 100 yards and disappeared over the tree tops; a behavior consistent with "carrying food". I couldn't refind any phoebes after this. There was a small group of CEDAR WAXWINGS in the ash trees behind the garage, which included an immature bird in juvenal plumage. This bird had a vaguely streaked breast and lacked any "waxy" tips to its wing feathers or any colored terminal band to the tail. I haven't checked Pyle for molt statistics on this species, but I believe that young are known to travel great distances from their natal area while still in juvenile plumage.
