I didn't have quite the variety or numbers Mike had yesterday, but my results were fairly similar. Migrants included 5 'WESTERN' FLYCATCHERS, a SWAINSON'S THRUSH, an ORANGE-CROWNED WARBLER, 34 YELLOW WARBLERS, a YELLOW-RUMPED WARBLER, 2 COMMON YELLOWTHROATS, and a WESTERN TANAGER. Six WHITE-CROWNED SPARROWS were the first I've had this winter (only one was immature). A SAY'S PHOEBE was also my first this fall. I counted three CHESTNUT-BACKED CHICKADEES, which seemed close to the Bay, but I've not birded here often. I also counted 32 SAVANNAH SPARROWS around the Great Meadow area and they were sometimes skittish. My experience was much like Mike's in that the highest concentration of migrants seemed to be in the eucalypts and cottonwoods on the south edge of the Great Meadow. The plumage and call note variation in the Yellow Warblers was really quite interesting. Bill _______________________________________________ Do not post admin requests to the list.
