[SBB] Continuing Red-naped Sapsucker & American Redstart



All,
 
At about 9:35 this morning Frank Vanslager and I saw the male RED-NAPED SAPSUCKER in the Live Oaks just in front of the first pullout on the right side of the road after the driveway for the houses at 23505 Alamitos Rd.  After we parked in the above spot we were just getting started when Frank heard the soft pecking of the bird in the oaks in front of us.  After watching the bird for several minutes the bird flew northeast to a large bare Oak on the hillside (toward the houses) where I was then able to get some fairly good photos.  We then dipped on the Bald Eagle at Calero and also dipped on the Ferruginous Hawk at New and Rucker Aves in Gilroy (I was told the bird is usually there in the afternoons).  We then also dipped on any rarities on Coyote Creek Golf Course but quickly found the AMERICAN REDSTART in the brush east of the bike trail and 200 to 225 yds north of the Sycamore Rest Stop which is north of the west entrance to the Golf Course. 
 
Take care,
Bob Reiling
