Jolene and I walked to the east end of Calero Reservoir. I didn't see the Eurasian Wigeon reported by Ann Verdi, but it could easily have been there, since I didn't carefully check every duck. Birds seen from the levee included 1-2 EARED GREBES, 4 AMERICAN WHITE PELICANS, hundreds of CANADA GEESE, lots of AMERICAN WIGEON, a few NORTHERN PINTAIL, NORTHERN SHOVELERS, GADWALL, GREEN-WINGED TEAL, RUDDY DUCKS, about 5 GREATER YELLOWLEGS (watched one throttle and gulp down a bullfrog!), BLACK-NECKED STILTS, LONG-BILLED DOWITCHERS, LEAST SANDPIPERS, a couple of DUNLIN, 2 FORSTER'S TERNS, an immature NORTHERN HARRIER, and a flock of WILD TURKEYS. A YELLOW WARBLER was chipping from the one tall poplar-type tree at the creek inflow. Ann Verdi showed up while we were checking the reservoir. On the walk back along the levee we had a nice look at a bright male LAWRENCE'S GOLDFINCH perched in a bush beside ther path--the first Ann or I have ever seen here. We also had RUBY-CROWNED KINGLET and ORANGE-CROWNED WARBLER in trees along the levee.
