Friends: Overcast with very low cloud deck in Wildcat Canyon Regional Park
today. Adelle Carroll and I entered from Rifle Range Road. We were there
from 9 to 11 am. Best birds were Caspian Terns overhead (at least three of
them, all vocalizing; we saw one clearly who circled looking for the others
it had lost in the fog) and Acorn Woodpeckers, unusual, I think, for Wildcat
Canyon.
Here is the complete list, sorry it is not in any particular order:
Wild Turkey (heard)
Double-crested Cormorant (overhead)
Dark-eyed Junco
Acorn Woodpecker
Caspian Terns (overhead)
Cooper's Hawk (heard)
Orange-crowned Warbler
Wilson's Warbler
Purple Finch
Varied Thrush
Wrentit (heard)
Song Sparrow
Anna's Hummingbird
Allen's Hummingbird
Scrub Jay
Steller's Jay
Robin
Oak Titmouse
Chestnut-backed Chickadee (heard)
Ruby-crowned Kinglet (heard)
Mourning Dove
Bewick's Wren (heard)
Spotted Towhee (heard)
California Towhee (heard)
Thanks to Adelle for getting me out to hear the birds today!
Best of Birds to you all!
