[EBB Sightings] Re: Berkeley Marina Rock Wren

On Oct. 3rd, around mid-day when the tide was at 3 feet, I spotted a 
Rock Wren on the exposed rocks along the eastern shore of Shorebird 
Park located between the Adventure Play Ground and Hs Lordship's 
Restaurant. (Park is about 100 yds. southeast of the pier.)  This 
rock Wren was fairly tame in his behavior, allowing me good looks 
from 20 feet away for several minutes.  In fact, this was the closest 
Rock Wren I've ever encountered, most of my past Rock Wren sightings 
are with a powerful scope from 200-300 yards away.
