[EBB Sightings] Willow Flycatcher

This morning about 7:30'ish I ran into Phil Gordon's Lindsay Museum birding
class on Patterson Pass Rd.
Together we worked the Willows at RM 5.90 south of the road.
The wind was very strong so the birds were hunkered in > making for good
viewing.
1. Western Willow Flycatcher - Fly catching
2. Sub - Adult Blue Grosbeak - singing
3. Lazuli Bunting - singing found by Jim  Ross of Pleasanton
Jim told me that this morning he picked four life sighting including the
Lark Sparrow all at RM. 5.90.
Earlier, another singing sub-adult male Blue Grosbeak was in the small
cottonwood walking west from RM. 7.14.
On May 29 at RM. 7.14 I found a sub-adult male Blue Grosbeak that was
feeding just north of he fence line in the wild oats .
Not long after he flew into the Large cotton wood, a female Blue Grosbeak
flew across the road pass the cottonwood on to the hill side.
Have a great weekend.
