[EBB Sightings] Concord Shrike location

Earlier this year, I spotted two Loggerhead Shrikes hanging out along 
the fence surrounding 2 ponds in the Lime ridge open space area. 
These ponds are in the Mt. Diablo CBC  circle.  These two ponds are 
accessed by taking Treat Blvd. from 680 and turning right (south) 
onto Navaronne. (Navarrone is just past a large creek--"Walnut 
Creek")  Drive to the end of Navaronne and take the trail up the 
gully. Check out the two ponds, one is 150 yards up stream and the 
2nd is another 200 yards further.  The 2nd pond was the most popular 
roost for these shrikes.  I haven't checked these ponds in the last 
few months but they attract some interesting birds.
