At 7:45, a few minutes before the park was officially open, I checked out a small trail section at the intersection of Calaveras and Downing Roads. In some smallish eucalytus there was a House Wren, a Red-breasted Sapsucker, three Western Tanagers, and a couple of Yellow Warblers. A Western-type flycatcher was in the willows beside the road. A flock of about 30 birds that winged over swiftly seemed to contain mostly Western Bluebirds by their calls. At 2:30 PM I parked at the Spring Valley Golf Course Maintenance Yard. Overhead, an immature Golden Eagle with its bold white tail and wing patches was present for the better part of an hour, circling over the dry hills. A Say's Phoebe was working the parking area. Along the beginning of the Airpoint Trail another RB Sapsucker was in a different type of eucalyptus (not the ubiquitous Blue Gum), and a Rufous-crowned Sparrow hid in a pile of broken concrete by a dumpster. A long walk through Hidden Villa's forest lands yesterday 9/30/04 yielded little of interest except for 3 Winter Wrens on the upper West Fork of Adobe Creek. --Garth Harwood _______________________________________________ Do not post admin requests to the list.
