[SBB] more Count Week Birds

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

All,

Mike Mammoser and I saw 2 YELLOW WARBLERS at the EEC butterfly garden in 
Alviso today 12/14/06, and then found a 3rd YELLOW WARBLER in a tree 
near the bend in the EEC entrance road. Also still present in the 
butterfly garden was a HOUSE WREN. When we left, the RUFF was still 
present with 4 LESSER YELLOWLEGS in the pond south of the entrance road 
(earlier Mike Mammoser had seen 5 LESSER YELLOWLEGS here). The RUFF is 
fairly large compared to both Lesser Yellowlegs and dowitchers and is 
presumably a male. It has an all-black bill and dull flesh-colored legs 
(grayish pink). This looks to be the same bird present here on 5 Nov 
(photographed by Tom Grey, see 
http://www.pbase.com/tgrey/image/69775197) and seen at the CCFS 
waterbird pond 9 Nov.

A careful search of the blackbird flock along Grand Blvd in Alviso 
turned up only 3 male TRICOLORED BLACKBIRDS among the many Red-winged 
Blackbirds and European Starlings.
