(See below) She, Rita Colwell and I were there for about 45 minutes starting at 9:30. It was calling when we first arrived, but was silent thereafter and moved around quite a bit and was seen both at water's edge and perched in trees. Rosalie Lefkowitz > > I saw a Northern Waterthrush around noon at the marsh near the Stevens Creek Trail, between Charleston and Stierlin Court. It was large-warbler sized with a slender bill. It had strong white lines either through the eyes or just above. The back and head were brown (I never saw the tail). The breast was streaked, and the streaking ended fairly low down on the breast. If I heard it call, I didn't associate the call with the bird. > > Directions to the marsh: Take Shoreline Blvd. toward the bay/Amphitheater/Shoreline Park. Turn right on Charleston. Go all the way down to the circle at the end, and then keep going on the little road the leads off the circle (just about straight ahead -- not Shorebird Way). Follow the road around to the left and go all the way to the end of the parking lot. You'll see a par course structure with rings beyond the edge of the parking lot. Walk toward it but turn left before you get to it, onto the par course trail that extends one mile around the marsh. The bird I saw was at the edge of the water, about 30 feet from where you'd enter the trail. > _______________________________________________ > Do not post admin requests to the list.
