I immediately heard and then located one of the female WESTERN TANAGERS at the northwest corner of the park. Working my way down the west side, I came across Janna Pauser and a friend (sorry, I forgot the name) and we birded around the park for a while, finding a MERLIN and at least 3 intergrade NORTHERN FLICKERS among other things. As we approached the northwest corner of the park, a male BULLOCK'S ORIOLE flashed across the path and into the adjacent apartment complex. A couple of TOWNSEND'S WARBLERS were interesting, and a briefly glimpsed bird with a lot of yellow on the head and an indistinct auricular patch may have been a Hermit Warbler, but the view was just too brief to make a positive ID. After parting with the ladies, I refound the WESTERN TANAGER, saw an ORANGE-CROWNED WARBLER, and had a female SELASPHORUS hummingbird. Also of interest at the park were some CALIFORNIA QUAIL I heard calling. I then joined Mike Rogers for birding in the afternoon. On Sunday morning, 26 Jan 03, I went to Calero Reservoir to see what was around. The adult BALD EAGLE was perched at the west end of the reservoir, and at the same time an adult GOLDEN EAGLE was perched on the nest power tower north of the reservoir. Walking in at the stables, I found 18 WILD TURKEYS in the corral and had a RED-SHOULDERED HAWK coming flying in from the west. The ROCK WREN was calling from along the feeder creek, although I was unable to locate it visually. A WHITE-TAILED KITE was perched cooperatively nearby, still showing some brownish immature feathers in the back and scapulars. Scoping from the southeast corner of the lake, I could pick out 3 CLARK'S and 8 WESTERN GREBES. During this time 3 TREE SWALLOWS came flying by, heading out over the water. I then headed for the Coyote Creek Golf Course. On the way, I saw a RED-TAILED HAWK carry a stick to a nest structure in a group of cottonwoods along Santa Teresa south of Bailey. At the golf course the PACIFIC LOON was still present on the upper pond, but blackbird numbers were quite low and contained no grackles. A pair of GOLDEN EAGLES was present east of the golf course, across hwy 101. On the way home I made a stop at Parkway Lakes, finding an OSPREY hunting over the water and 15 AMERICAN WHITE PELICANS hunting on it.
