Hi. E.B. Birders,
Today at Point Pinole Regional Shoreline, there were
two Grasshopper Sparrows in the weedy field to the
west the first picnic area, between the Bay View Trail
and the shoreline vegetation. They were perched near
each other on the bare branches of an old shrub about
50 feet from the trail, moved to another old shrub,
then one flew off into the grass, and the other flew
off to a blackberry bush between the weedy field and
the pickleweed.
There was also a Slate-colored Junco under the second
group of eucalyptus, a bit farther north along the
Bay View Trail.
Earlier at San Pablo Shoreline at the end of Tennent
Road in Pinole, we saw a Surfbird along the rocks with
the Black Turnstones on the far west side of mudflat.
All the Best Birding,
Denise Wight
Moraga, CA
