[SBB] Male YHBL at Palo Alto Duck Pond



All:

 

Today, Saturday, at 4:30 PM I drove into the northwest-most parking space at the Palo Alto Duck Pond.  While I was still sitting there, an adult, male Yellow-headed Blackbird flew onto the asphalt just in front of my car.  He was happily feeding on what the bird-feeders were throwing out, along with some blackbirds, cowbirds, coots, and other riff-raff.  He made occasional forays up into those small trees.  When I thought he'd left, I got out and found that he was perched nicely on top of one of those trees for a photographer and me.  Then he flew off.

 

A quick visit to Byxbee hill netted me 5 different Northern Harriers (a male and 4 female-types), but no Short-eared Owls.
