    Hello, 
    
    Took a stroll down the Nimitz Way Trail this morning and was pleasantly surprised. Despite all the bikers, walkers and dog walkers, it was very birdy. Just at the first bend of the trail, American Goldfinches and Pygmy Nuthatches were working the slope of white, waist-high flowers. Also found a bushtit nest, abandoned.

    Pygmy Nuthatch
    Red Breasted Nuthatch
    Orange Crowned Warbler
    Wilson's Warbler (adult feeding a fledgling)
    Nuttall's Woodpecker
    Band-tailed Pigeon (about 4-6)
    Ash Throated Flycatcher (2)
    Western Bluebird
    Swainson's Thrush (heard)
    California Towhee
    Spotted Towhee
    Scrub Jay
    Stellar's Jay
    American Crow
    Red Tail Hawk
    Purple Finch
    Chestnut Backed Chickadee
    Junco

    Various Sparrows (not my forte)
    
    Good birding,
