[EBB Sightings] Hayward Shoreline (04/19)

all,

  i never hear anyone sing the praises [paeans] of Castle Rock Pk [EBR] in lafayette.  it's the great sleeper of birding [much like sibley].  this time of year it abounds with bullocks orioles and western kingbirds, lovely guys.  plus all of the regulars of mitchel cyn- tho not as great for warblers.  it's nearby; accessible. try it; enjoy it!  best birding around the baseball field, 200 yds in from parking place.  money back guarantee for unseen bullocks....
