On my lunch hour I went birding around the Rose Garden and Orchard areas
of Guadalupe River Park in San Jose. I also walked down to the river and,
under the West Taylor Street bridge at the entrance to 87 and 101, I found
some White-throated Swifts. I never saw more than 2 at a time, but I
assume there were more than that since I saw swifts enter three different
(nesting?) holes under the bridge. At one point, two swifts engaged in
aerial combat and flew only a few feet from me. There were also some Cliff
Swallow nests under the bridge.
I was checking the park out because I wanted to find a birding spot close
to my work on The Alameda. This park seems to have a lot of potential and
it's only 7 minutes away!
