On Saturday, May 17, the Mount Diablo Audubon Society held its annual  
East Contra Costa County Field Trip.  Seven birders tallied 52  
species and noteworthy birds included: Blue Grosbeaks (Marsh Creek  
Trail, Oakley); Swainson's Hawk, Burrowing Owl and Yellow-billed  
Magpie (Delta Road, Knightson); Yellow-breasted Chat - both heard and  
seen (Bethel Island Road near Willow Road West, Bethel Island); and  
Bullock's Oriole (Marsh Creek Trail, Oakley).  In addition the group  
enjoyed great views of a very cooperative American Bittern along  
Jersey Island Road.

Good birding,
Paul and Nancy Schorr, Antioch
