Other than one drizzly shower before we started out, the weather was cloudy and windy turning to sunny later in the morning. The walk in was very quiet other than a covey of 5 CA QUAIL and 1 very wet GREAT HORNED OWL, a few TOWNSENDS WARBLERS, CHESTNUT-BACKED CHICKADEES and RUBY-CROWNED KINGLETS. We got almost to the lagoon without much action - panic by the leader. Then, the weather cleared somewhat and things picked up culminating with everyone getting good looks at the immature RED-EYED VIREO that has been seen for the last few days. We then tried for the Prairie Warbler at Laguna Grande Park, but we struck out there. The following is a trip list including Laguna Grande Park - Pied-billed Grebe Double-crested Cormorant Great Blue Heron Great Egret Black-crowned Night-Heron Canada Goose Mallard Northern Pintail Ruddy Duck Sharp-shinned Hawk Red-shouldered Hawk California Quail American Coot Greater Yellowlegs Herring Gull Western Gull Rock Pigeon Mourning Dove Great Horned Owl Anna's Hummingbird Northern Flicker Black Phoebe Scrub Jay American Crow Chestnut-backed Chickadee Bushtit Pygmy Nuthatch Bewick's Wren Ruby-crowned Kinglet Hermit Thrush Wrentit European Starling RED-EYED VIREO Yellow Warbler Townsend's Warbler Yellow-rumped Warbler Common Yellowthroat California Towhee Song Sparrow White-crowned Sparrow Golden-crowned Sparrow Red-winged Blackbird Brewer's Blackbird House Finch Some of us went to Robert's Lake and found GREAT-TAILED GRACKLES and there were 2 PEREGRINE FALCONS on the Embassy Suites Hotel. _______________________________________________ Do not post admin requests to the list.
