I went to Mitchell Canyon (Mt. Diablo State Park) today, hoping the storms
had brought in some spring arrivals, but alas. Nevertheless highlights of
our old favorites were a Turkey trio on the hillside near the parking lot.
3 Hermit Thrushes, A large flock of mixed Myrtle and Audubon Yellow-rumped
Warblers from drab to stunning bright new plumage, a large flock of
American Goldfinches near the parking lot, ditto the plumage. I heard 4
Orange Crowned Warblers and one Wrentit. There are a few species of early
wildflowers and the stream is roaring!
