It was partly cloudy most of the time with one brief shower. The old sewer ponds (?) west of the levee had a mixture of water levels. There was a good mix of ducks with AMERICAN WIGEON (9), and RING-NECKED DUCKS (2 males, female) most interesting as neither is likely to breed here and both are a bit late. Also on these ponds were 67 SEMIPALMATED PLOVERS and 5 CASPIAN TERNS. I found three singing YELLOW-BREASTED CHATS, one west of the levee just before the 1st pond and the other two east of the levee opposite the 6th and 7th ponds. Although birds have been seen here before, no breeding evidence has been obtained. I also found two singing MARSH WRENS, which are new for this block. Both appeared to be singing on territories in tules in the creek. Three to five VAUX'S SWIFTS were foraging over the levee. I made a quick stop on my return at Pacheco Creek at San Felipe Road. At least two YELLOW WARBLERS were singing in the creek at the bridge. Bill _______________________________________________ Do not post admin requests to the list.
