Indeed, upon investigation, I witnessed a pair of Black Phoebes franticly catching any and all insects they could and stuffing into the begging mouth of a young one (more muddied than crisp plumage as compared with the adults and brownish-black flight feathers contrasting with the more black flight feathers of the adults). Any one know the latest record for breeding Black Phoebes in this area? Also, any one want a three shrike day? I have had the opportunity to occasionally walk the Guadalupe River from Hedding down to Trimble Road. One Loggerhead Shrike can bee seen just south of Hedding, usually in one of the remaining tall cottonwoods near where the new overpass over the river just went-in. This bird is most tricky to see as I have seen him from any where along the river bed in this general area to over be near the rose garden (Columbus Park) to over in the field off of Ruff Drive/McKendrie Street near the storage place. A second Loggerhead shrike can be routinely seen on the east side of the river between Airport Parkway and Hwy 101 in the vicinity of the largest cottonwood as one approaches the car rental lots walking north along the service road (along the river). A third Loggerhead Shrike can be seen along the river in the field (now barren and being surveyed, staked, and graded for construction) east of the river between Hwy 101 and Trimble Road. Three shrikes within about a five mile stretch of the river. All the best, Eric Feuss _______________________________________________ Do not post admin requests to the list.
