I saw no sign of these woodpeckers, but there is a lot of nearby habitat that the spring birds may have moved to. I found only six HORNED LARKS along the Canada de Pala Trail and none were singing, so I guess breeding is over. I encountered multiple families of GRASSHOPPER SPARROWS and heard two singing birds (12 overall). These birds were all located near wet areas. One CHIPPING SPARROW was singing in a wet arroyo just before the Line Shack, where Mike Rogers had multiple birds in April. On the walk back, I found two male and a female LAWRENCE'S GOLDFINCHES feeding on fiddlenecks about .75 mi. from Hwy 130. This morning, 6/27/2003, I visited Llagas Creek above Bloomfield to see if there was any evidence of breeding by Yellow-breasted Chats. No chats at all. I walked out to pond 4--all are now dry and the district has heightened two of the levees. An adult GREEN HERON was along the creek. An undoubted escapee, a NORTHERN BOBWHITE called in the distance. I checked Metcalf Canyon on my way back, finding a GREATER ROADRUNNER north of Metcalf Road 0.7 mi up from Hwy 101 and a ROCK WREN at M.P 0205.
