This newly-named trail is the designation for the path that goes along the east side of the Guadalupe Channel by the VTA light rail station just north of Almaden Lake. The trail continues north going under Blossom Hill Rd ending up by the perc ponds at the Hwy 85 overpass. Along the path near the Guadalupe Channel spillway there is a lot of dense mixed vegetation - pepper trees, holly-leaf cherry, willow, coyote brush, ash, etc. It was in this dense mixed shrubbery that the Nashville Warbler was seen. Other birds seen here recently include Orange-crowned Warbler, Yellow Warbler, Common Yellowthroat, Wilson's Warbler, Bewick's Wren, Oak Titmouse, Chestnut-backed Chickadee, Hooded Oriole. In short, this appears to be a "mini hot spot" at the moment for migrating passerines. At Almaden Lake about six YELLOW-RUMPED WARBLERS (all juveniles) were seen in a eucalyptus on the east side of the park. Many Yellow Warblers were seen here today as well. One N. SHOVELER was on the lake. John Mariani who was in town for a few days saw a basic-plumaged AMERICAN AVOCET at Calero Reservoir on Sept 21. That's it for now - Ann Verdi _______________________________________________ Do not post admin requests to the list.
