Nothing too unusual, but was surprised at the conspicuous presence of the Pileated Woodpeckers. This was a state bird for me (I just moved here); don't quite understand why, but there was something more special about seeing and hearing them in a western pine forest than in an eastern deciduous. At least 2-3 birds calling around the trail on the way down. Finally got a good look on the way back. Also had one winter wren, which gave only a brief glimpse but then obliged with a nice song. The Varied Thrush's were not around in the early morning, but seemd to be everywhere by the parking lot at 10:30am on the way out. Other birds included Hutton's Vireo, Hermit Thrush, Townsend's Warbler, Brown Creeper, Hairy Woodpecker. Started the morning at Shoreline, hoping to get a look at a Burrowing Owl. Was unable to locate one in 10 brief minutes of searching. Did have Lincoln's Sparrow, Savannah Sparrow and Ring-necked Pheasant.
