We spent several hours searching the area south of the banding trailers and the creek trail. In the early afternoon we spotted what I think was Hutton's Vireo but with a too a long tail and a thin pointed bill. Unfortunately the bird never called [HUVI seem to be calling in other parts of the bay] and spent much of it's time higher up in the trees where we were unable to get good views of the wings [they seemed to have buffy-white wingbars with a dark area between them, unfortunately the outer wing looked olive green and I could not determine the primary projection]. The bird did not have a vested look. The eyering looked good for HAFL but the head shape looked wrong [not big headed enough and no crested look]. The bird tended to simultaneously flick the wings and tail as it moved through the branches, initially slowly and later more urgently. The bird did not fly out and then return to a perch as it fed but seemed to flycatcher as it moved among the branches. The only notable bird for the day was a GOLDEN-CROWNED KINGLET working the trees near the southern end of the creek side mist nets. Should have been at Almaden Lake Park :-( Take care, Bob Reiling _______________________________________________ Do not post admin requests to the list.
