[EBB Sightings] They're all gone

Your zonotrichia sparrows were all happily munching on my lawn this
morning, along with my resident grazers.  Perhaps they stopped by for
one last snack before heading north.  I'm in Orinda, near the Moraga
border.  (The house with very little remaining lawn...)

Same here! They were happily foraging in the yard yesterday afternoon
and 
evening, gone today. I wonder if the passing of a front might be
involved? 
I have not looked at a weather map today.
My home is in Oakland near the intersection of Joaquin Miller and
Highway 
13.
