[EBB Sightings] Migrants at Joaquin Miller Park

I birded Joaquin Miller Park this morning before work (9/16).  I found a
nice, mixed flock of insectivores on the hill just west of the Woodminster
Memorial Theater, with Bushtits, Chestnut-backed Chickadees and several
presumed migrants including two Townsend's Warblers (FOS for me), one male
Wilson's Warbler, one Yellow Warbler and a Warbling Vireo.  There is a nice
juicy brush pile just up the hill from the public restrooms there - I only
spotted Oregon Juncos, California Towhees and House Finches in the brush
pile this morning, but it looks like it might be a good spot to find
wintering sparrows in the near future.  I hope it doesn't get "cleaned up"!
