Only one of these was one of our missing 4's, a female BARROW'S GOLDENEYE found at Shoreline Lake on 4 Nov. This female was seen occasionally after this (always a hard ID) as well as 1-2 imm males. Towards the end of the month a hybrid BARROW'S X COMMON showed up, but you have to go to Foster City or Lake Merritt for looks at a pure male. We found three 5's for the month, which was nice. A PALM WARBLER was seen at the Mountain View Forebay on 1 Nov. Adding to the vagrant warblers, a BLACK-AND-WHITE WARBLER was found in Rancho San Antonio OSP on 3 Nov. After being missed for a few years, a single immature WHITE-WINGED SCOTER was found on Shoreline Lake and remained at least a few days. As always, the big excitement in any month is a 6. A CHESTNUT-COLLARED LONGSPUR was found over one of the closed salt ponds in Alviso on 14 Nov, for a sixth county record. As I write this in late December, we have added a few more species to the county list, but we may not even match last year's poor total and this will be the lowest since 1991. I won't close out the 2003 list until sometime in January, but let's not forget to get a fresh start on the 2004 lists. Send your day lists for 1 Jan to me at <[[email protected]]> and I'll put together a composite list for New Year's Day 2004. ========= The complete list can be found at: South Bay Birders Unlimited (SBBU) http://www.stanford.edu/~kendric/birds/ -- Kendric C.
