Unfortunately it was low tide, the closest birds were a long way out, and no unusual birds were seen. Areas checked included Shoreline Lake, Salt Pond A-1, the Palo Alto Flood Control Basin and the Palo Alto Yacht Harbor (Duck Pond, etc.). There were no Clapper Rails in "Clapper Rail Creek" (do "chicken" footprints count ;-), we did have a nice, essentially all white first winter GLAUCOUS-WINGED GULL in the Duck Pond, a basic plumaged BONAPARTE'S GULL was in the harbor itself, and a PEREGRINE FALCON was on a power tower east of the harbor entrance. We then decided to try for American Dipper on the way home. We parked just upstream of the first bridge over Stevens Creek on Stevens Canyon Road (past Mt. Eden Rd.) and walked upstream checking the stream as we went. We ultimately found a closely interacting pair of AMERICAN DIPPERS about 150 yds. upstream of the fourth bridge. Take care, Bob Reiling, 1:42 PM, 2/20/03 _______________________________________________ Do not post admin requests to the list.
