A flock of BROWN PELICANS over Alviso on 15 May were very early. This 3 is normally regular by mid- to late-summer. We did quite well with the 4s, our regular rare birds. Multiple BLACK-CHINNED HUMMINGBIRDS were found along the Guadalupe River below Curtner including a female with a nearly finished nest who undoubtedly arrived in April. A BLACK-CHINNED SPARROW was found in the Sierra Azul OSP on 13 May and there were scattered reports after that. A LEAST TERN over the Alviso salt ponds on 15 May was one of our few spring records. An unusual spring WILLOW FLYCATCHER was along Stevens Creek below La Avenida on 26 May. a WHITE-FACED IBIS was found in Adobe Creek on 31 May and was a one-day wonder. Three 5s showed up in May. A RUDDY TURNSTONE was in Salt Pond A16 in Alviso on 2 May and on the same day a DUSKY FLYCATCHER was banded along Coyote Creek. At the end of the month, on 30 May, a number of BLACK SWIFTS were seen moving northward over Monte Bello OSP. The biggest excitement of the month was a SAGE THRASHER found in New Chicago Marsh on 10 May.
