Two similar days weather and bird-wise. Cooler, more comfortable temps and a large variety of species, given that the total number of birds each day was in the mid-20s to low 30s. Here are the breakdowns for the 2 days:
9/27/12: Red-breasted Nuthatch 1 House Wren 1 Ruby-crowned Kinglet 3 Hermit Thrush 2 Orange-crowned Warbler 4 Audubon Warbler 4 Wilson's Warbler 3 Spotted Towhee 1 Clay-colored Sparrow 1 Song Sparrow 2 Gambel's White-crowned Sparrow 2 Oregon Junco 2 Lazuli Bunting 1 House Sparrow 4 (Caught in Nature Center nets where there are feeders) 9/28/12: Downy Woodpecker 1 Red-shafted Flicker 1 House Wren 1 Ruby-crowned Kinglet 2 Hermit Thrush 2 Gray Catbird 1 Orange-crowned Warbler 4 Audubon Warbler 1 Wilson's Warbler 3 Gambel's White-crowned Sparrow 5 Pink-sided Junco 2 House Sparrow 2 (Again, at Nature Center nets) Here is our schedule for the balance of the season: Closed Mon (10/1) because we have a late afternoon group; then closed Thurs (10/4) and Thurs (10/11). Otherwise open daily, weather permitting, through Sun 10/14.
