It provided great looks to several observers at least through 9:30am. A couple of RED-BREASTED NUTHATCHES were calling in the same area. I next headed up to Alum Rock Park, where another birder had an AMERICAN DIPPER staked out near the bridge by the last parking lot. A pair of COMMON MERGANSERS and a SNOWY EGRET were a bit further down the creek in front of the YSI building. Along the North Rim Trail I saw at least 2 male ALLEN'S HUMMINGBIRDS, 5+ WHITE-THROATED SWIFTS, and 4 RUFOUS-CROWNED SPARROWS (most at the start of the Baccardo Trail atop the Todd Quick Trail). I headed up the Baccardo Trail, hoping to refind the Grasshopper Sparrows reported second-hand on the San Joses CBC. Not many sparrows up there - the best I could do was 2 SAVANNAH SPARROWS. I did have a PRAIRIE FALCON soaring over the trail at 11:15am though. At the knob (1896 feet elevation, only 1/4 mile from the Sierra Road Summit!) I saw a flyover AMERICAN PIPIT and heard a HORNED LARK from the direction of Sierra Road. No sign of the day-roosting Western Screech-Owl before or after my trip up to the top.
