    This Friday (3/6/09) morning before work, I walked the upper half of South
    Park Drive (currently closed to traffic) in Tilden Park (starting at the
    steam train end off of Grizzly Peak Drive). Spring was certainly in the
    air. I heard 2 Orange-crowned Warblers and spotted a 3rd.  A Chipping
    Sparrow was pished in from the edge of the sloping, rocky meadow on the
    uphill side of the road.  Also spotted 2 Rufous Hummingbirds and a few
    ubiquitous White-breasted and Red-breasted Nuthatches.
