After reading the reports about the birds at the EEC, I decided to go there today...the gate was locked so I had to walk in..... Lots of Black-necked Stilts chasing a poor Snowy Egret. Lots of Barn Swallows flying over the slough. Greater Yellowlegs and Dowitchers were present as well as Least and Western Sandpipers. A beautiful Red-tail just sitting on the towers watching the world go by..... I was happy to see the Barn Owl in the box (tried taking pics of this....darn it kept moving in the box). A Black-crowned Night Heron was also in the same tree. Weeding through the House Finch I had a Song Sparrow. As I approached the levy there was a beautiful Savannah Sparrow at the waters edge. Lots of Red-necked and Wilson's Phalaropes swimming. The Black-Skimmer was watching over it's young. I was concerned about the drooping wing and tail feathers of the young Skimmer....A few young Forster's Terns on the island as well. On my way out I saw a male Pheasant...On the railroad post was the Burrowing Owl just sitting there..so I couldn't resist taking a few pictures....what a beautiful owl.... Wishing you all good birding and my best regards, Linda Sullivan _______________________________________________ Do not post admin requests to the list.
