All,
 
This morning Frank Vanslager and I had a flock of 25 HORNED LARKS along  
Sierra Road between the Corral at the top of the hill and 5500 Sierra  Road.  Just 
before 5500 Frank had a flock of 31 YELLOW-BILLED MAGPIES on  one hillside 
with 5 - 6 more on another nearby hillside.  Along this same  area we had 3 - 4 
LOGGERHEAD SHRIKES, 5 - 6 SAY'S PHOEBES, six WESTERN  BLUEBIRDS and at least 
one flock of eight WHITE-THROATED SWIFTS (later we  had another? flock at the 
beginning of Felter Road) .  Just  beyond 5500 we had a mixed flock of up to 
ten LARK SPARROWS, 8 -  10 GOLDEN-CROWNED SPARROWS (mostly first winter birds), 
at least three  RUFOUS-CROWNED SPARROWS and a LINCOLN SPARROW (an odd 
location?) in with  the SAVANNAH SPARROWS.  Just below the Marsh Road turnoff we had  
six HOODED MERGANSERS (three each) in with the usual assortment of ducks,  
KILLDEER, a GREATER YELLOWLEGS and a Dowitcher in the cattle pond.   Above the 
pond, with soaring RED-TAILED HAWKS and TURKEY VULTURES, we had a  GOLDEN EAGLE, 
two FERRUGINOUS HAWKS (one was a light phase juvenile  which closely followed 
the first FEHA over the same hill and out of sight)  and an adult BALD EAGLE. 
 Later as we neared the junction with  Calaveras Road an adult PRAIRIE FALCON 
flew low over us heading up Felter  Road.  A juvenile Golden Eagle (white 
base of tail and fair amounts of  white in the lower wing) was in the same area 
just south of the Calaveras  Road junction.
 
Take care,
Bob Reiling
