[SBB] nesting Nutmeg Mannikins

[Janna Pauser <[[email protected]]>]

The Chipping Sparrow was in the same area on the Guadalupe River Trail 
early this morning. I was close enough verify its identity today.

I met the Wild Bird Center group at Lake Almaden at 8 am. We saw many 
Western Tanagers flying about. A highlight was the Osprey seen flying 
upstream. Before I left I checked an Elderberry bush on Crossview Court 
and found Western Tanager, Cal. Thrasher and Black headed Grosbeak 
eating ripe berries.

Later I confirmed an active Nutmeg Mannikin nest in a Pepper tree where 
Winfield dead ends. It sounded like at least a dozen nestling's chirping 
like House Sparrows. An adult NUMA flew out and they quieted down.
