[SBB] Continuing American Redstart, Red Phalaropes

[Bill Bousman <[[email protected]]>]

Folks:

I checked on a number of recent stakeouts today, 1/4/06.  I parked beside 
the maintenance road at the Coyote Creek GC and walked towards the 
maintenance area.  I found the continuing AMERICAN REDSTART below the bank 
along the bike path in a willow thicket.  This is between the two last 
poles before the maintenance yard.  After foraging in the willow a bit, it 
flew up into the oaks and I eventually lost sight of it.  It was silent the 
entire time, but very active.

At the SCVWD ponds, I found an OSPREY,  an adult PEREGRINE FALCON, an adult 
GREEN HERON, and a male HAIRY WOODPECKER (likely the same bird reported 
this fall and winter along the Guadalupe.

I counted six RED PHALAROPES in the southwest corner of Crittenden Marsh.
