The most noteworthy sighting was an OSPREY that had caught a large fish. It flew across the entrance road and seemed to be heading for the usual perch tree along the edge of the south pond, when it evidently noticed a pair of RED-SHOULDERED HAWKS sitting there. So it circled for a minute, gaining altitude over the pond, before flying off to the south and disappearing behind the trees. Breeding evidence included a couple of WESTERN KINGBIRD families feeding recently fledged young, RED-WINGED BLACKBIRDS doing the same, and a family group of AMERICAN CROWS. Other birds of interest included a GREEN HERON, a YELLOW WARBLER singing in the willows, and 3 LARK SPARROWS. I then checked the heron nest at the north end of the middle lake in the Parkway chain. Last time I looked there was a couple full grown young in it. This time there was a single adult GREAT BLUE HERON standing on the nest. It reached down once with its bill and made some kind of adjusting movement before sitting down, in an incubating position, but only for about 5 seconds, and then stood up again. This seemed interesting to me, as I'm not sure if these birds ever double-brood. An AMERICAN COOT was sitting on a nest in the pond vegetation here, and a GREEN HERON flushed from the lake. On Sunday, 22 Jun 03, a quick check of Coyote Ranch Marsh produced 3 half-grown COMMON MOORHENS. Mike Mammoser _______________________________________________ Do not post admin requests to the list.
