This bird was calling a lot on the east side of the creek about halfway between the end of L'Avenida and the power line crossing at the north end of the Moffett housing complex. It is easy to recognize the spot because the gravel lower path is suddenly paved for a drainage channel that dumps into the creek here. The bird spent most of its time by the muddy pool where this channel dumps into the (up to this point dried out) creek bed, but also was in the willows above this spot and in the brush across the path on the dike. It seemed to be heading further north as I left it, so looking near the power line crossing (a favored spot in past years) may be a good idea also. Otherwise the usual western migrants included 11+ YELLOW WARBLERS, 3 WESTERN TANAGERS, 2 "WESTERN" FLYCATCHERS, and 1 WILSON'S WARBLER. Two DARK-EYED JUNCOS were still near the end of L'Avenida.
