    This morning it seemed particularly un-birdy while biking around Heather 
    Farm Park in Walnut Creek.  As I returned to the Contra Costa Canal 
    footbridge on my way home, I paused to see the sparrows in the triangle 
    formed by the split paved paths.  I had scattered some seed on my way into 
    the park and I wanted to see if there was anything besides White- and 
    Golden-crowned Sparrows.  Wow, what a stunner, a nice looking White-throated 
    Sparrow which did not seem shy, even when other bikers passed.  This was 
    after not being able to find a Black-crowned Night-Heron or a Nuttall's 
    Woodpecker.
