Greetings All,
There was a goodly push of passerines at Golden Ponds this morning, with birds moving down the riparian strip at a fairly steady rate. A return visit in the afternoon undoubtedly would've yielded different individuals. The main birds involved in this movement were YR Warblers, Western Tanagers, and Western Kingbirds. The highlights were a male HOODED WARBLER, e. of the bridge over the creek, and a singing male BLACKPOLL WARBLER at the w. end of the creek, where it enters private property (or off-limits property, anyway). Swallow numbers were impressive around Firestone, dominated by Cliffs, numbering in the thousands. However, the Mexican Duck and Barrow's Goldeneye could not be relocated there.
