[EBB Sightings] Winter Wren - not

Steve et al.
The Winter Wren discussion prompted me to look back at some old notes. I 
saw one along Sausal Creek, near the trailhead on Monterey Blvd (just 
south of Park Blvd.) on June 18, 2001. Another place where I saw them 
frequently was on the Dunn trail in Redwood Regional Park, east of its 
intersection with the Graham trail, in a redwood/fern shady area with a 
small seasonal drainage. That location isn't far as a bird flies from 
the Stream Trail that Steve mentioned.
