Rob Raker and I birded Genesee Park this morning. In addition to two pairs of Williamson's Sapsuckers and tens of thousands of lady bugs (just downhill from the flag pole), we saw a male Eastern Bluebird on the southwest side of the large parking lot at the picnic area. The Eastern was with a group of Western Bluebirds, and we couldn't tell if there were any other Eastern Bluebirds in the group. We had great looks at the Eastern Bluebird with it's white belly and rusty throat sitting on an exposed branch, and he also sang a bit. The lady bugs were everywhere to the west of the flag pole - on bushes, rocks, on the bark of Ponderosa Pines - literally thousands of the little critters. Lots of birds early before the morning warmed up.
