We walked the trail from 8:30 to 10:15 this morning.? The Hooded Oriole
reappeared near the abandon farm house after being in hiding for a week.?
Within 50 yards of it 2 male Bullock?s Orioles chased each other in the tree
tops. ?South of the equipment storage area, in the general area where the
male was spotted a couple weeks ago, a female Wilson?s Warbler provided us
with a good look.? A first-of-season Western Kingbird was seen atop the dead
cottonwoods creek side, just north of the storage area.? ?A Western
Bluebird, the first we?ve ever seen on this trail, was spotted atop a dead
cottonwood tree south of the storage area.
?
Adding to the raptors, a female Northern Harrier made a high pass heading
north.? Finally, we were entertained by a Raven and Red-shoulder hawk
engaged in aerial combat near the Raven?s nest on the power pole.
