[SBB] Geng Road to Shoreline



Folks:

This morning, 1/24/07, I stopped at a number of spots from the Geng 
Road pond in Palo Alto to Shoreline Park and Lake (I also stopped on 
the way back this afternoon at Renzel and Geng Road).  Frost in the 
morning at the Geng Road pond and the only bird of interest was the 
female HOODED MERGANSER that is regular here.  Few Canadas were 
around.  On the Shoreline Park overflow lot there were more Canadas, 
but no other geese.  Shoreline Lake had at least one male BARROW'S 
GOLDENEYE, in the northwest corner, as usual.  A BURROWING OWL was in 
a mound across from Michaels.

This afternoon, I found one CACKLING GOOSE on the levee at the Emily 
Renzel Wetlands with hundreds of Canadas.  Then, at the Geng Road 
pond about 2:30 pm, I hit the trifecta: 5 GREATER WHITE-FRONTED 
GEESE, and adult and an immature SNOW GOOSE, and 8 CACKLING 
GEESE.  The female HOODED MERGANSER was sleeping on the bank.
