[SBB] Plumbeous Vireo still around at CCFS!

[Mike Rogers <[[email protected]]>]

All,

Mike Mammoser and I joined Steve Rottenborn at CCFS, hoping to relocate 
the Chimney Swift or the Gray Catbird. There was a flock of 24+ 
WHITE-THROATED SWIFTS high over the Milpitas side of the creek, but no 
sign of the Chimney Swift. No sign of the catbird either, but while 
searching along the creek, we heard a singing "Solitary" Vireo and by 
tracking it down managed to confirm that it was a PLUMBEOUS VIREO, 
presumably the same one found by Scott Terrill back on 5 October 250 
meters further north. Today the bird was singing from the cottonwood 
along the creek about 20 meters north of net 9655, in loose association 
with 4 TOWNSEND'S WARBLERS, BUSHTITS, and CHESTNUT-BACKED CHICKADEES.

Also at CCFS today, were the continuing unbanded BLUE-GRAY GNATCATCHER 
by the trailer and 4 HOUSE WRENS. Earlier, Steve had seen a hatch-year 
female BLACK-THROATED GRAY WARBLER up by the former heronry across from 
the waterbird pond (likely the same bird continuing from 15 Oct); he 
also saw 3 VIOLET-GREEN SWALLOWS heading north along the creek south of 
the trailer.
