[EBB Sightings] Pine Grosbeak sighting

I was there this morning from 9:00-10:20 am, and was unable to re-locate 
this bird.  For those who may still be mystified about location, I can 
add that the school and community garden are at the end of Glacier Drive 
(Thomas Bros. map, p.591, J-1).  Species seen/heard include: Mallard, 
Turkey Vulture, Red-tailed Hawk, Great Egret, Killdeer, Mourning Dove, 
Pacific-slope Flycatcher, Anna's Hummingbird, Belted Kingfisher, 
Nuttall's Woodpecker, Western Scrub-Jay, Barn Swallow, Oak Titmouse, 
Bushtit, Black-headed Grosbeak, California Towhee, Lesser Goldfinch, 
House Sparrow.
