Given her timely report, it seems clear that these were separate individuals, and also appears to clarify my ongoing suspicion that there are at least two pairs operating in the Stevens Creek watershed these days. At the little pond at gate 5 this morning, there were few surprises. One Lincoln's Sparrow was working seedheads of Harding Grass (thank goodness something finds that invasive stuff useful! Song Sparrows like it too.) 94 Lesser Goldfinches were in 2 separate, pure flocks (more's the pity). Small flocks of Cedar Waxwings passed over (all southbound) throughout my visit, totaling 173 birds in 7 different groups ranging in size from 6 to 40 individuals. Interesting, considering the total absence of this species just a few miles to the west on yesterday's Ano Nuevo CBC.
