[SBB] Hooded Warbler in San Jose

Sorry for the late posting as I've just re-subscribed to the list.

Last Saturday morning, Feb. 4,  I saw a male Hooded Warbler taking a bath 
in a backyard fountain.  This was in West San Jose on the Santa 
Clara/Cupertino borders near 280 and Lawrence Expy.  I initially thought it 
was a very loud California Towhee, as he was quite vocal.  It reminded me 
of a previous sighting with Les Chibana's class a few years ago near Crespi 
pond/golf course in Monterey.  That one too was very Towhee-like in 
voice.  Saturday's bird provided a nice long view, with much preening and 
flicking of the tail feathers.  He flashed quite a bit of white in the 
outer tail.
