No luck there, but I did see two WHITE THROATED SWIFTS flying over head, at least four GREEN HERONS flying back and forth to the waters edge. Two BLACK- CROWNED NIGHT HERONS were on the island with 3 SNOWY EGRETS, and 1 GREAT EGRET. An immature GREAT BLUE HERON on the west side of the island, and may be the one I've seen at Lake Almaden. A dozen FORSTERS TERNS were flying over the pond, 7 ROUGH WINGED SWALLOWS seen on the east side of the pond. Two COMMON YELLOWTHROATS in the reeds on the east side of the pond with a few SONG SPARROWS, and BLACK PHOEBE'S every hundred yards, some with young. A male BELTED KINGFISHER was flying in wide circles over the area. I believe the young ACORN WOODPECKERS have fledge their nest cavity in the dead Sycamore standing in the water. Thought it unusual I didn't see any hummingbird activity among the native plants. Janna Pauser _______________________________________________ Do not post admin requests to the list.
