Sorry for the lateness, but I don't have good email access out here. On Thursday, March 4th, there was a Eurasian Green-winged Teal at Steven's Creek Marsh at Shoreline Park in with about 30 of the american (sub)species. On Friday, March 5th, I checked Spreckles and State in hopes that a Ruff or two were around. No luck, but there were about 40 Mew Gulls, a few Californias, and a single Bonepart's. I then went over to the EEC, and walked out the boardwalk to the dike. A good number of gulls (200-300?) were present on the jetty-like things in the salt pond. About 70% Herring, 10% Glaucous-winged, 10% Thayers, 5% California, and a couple Ring-bills. I also flushed a pair of Burrowing Owls from the dike. On Monday, March 8th, I did have one Ruff at the pond at Spreckles and State. Today, a quick check of the Palo Alto Baylands had two unexpected species (for me, anyway), a male Ring-necked Pheasant and about 15 Cliff Swallows checking out the eves at the visitor's center. -Pete -- Pete Hosner Currently in Moutain View, CA 650-279-0533 _______________________________________________ Do not post admin requests to the list.
