Yesterday morning at 9am sharp, I parked at the top of the Alum Rock Park road and walked out on the bridge where I noticed an American Dipper feeding just below the bridge. I quickly snapped a couple of shots from which I was able to determine the juvenile status of the bird from the white eyelids (eye crescent in tech. terms) and lighter chest. After it got nervous of the camera, it flew upstream where I found it again feeding just above the next bridge. There were construction crews doing major creek restoration in between the two sights, and it amazed me to find this little bird, apparently undaunted by the commotion! Great birding, Jean Myers _______________________________________________ Do not post admin requests to the list.
