I took a walk with my dad this morning, and had a few nice birds between the Valco Ponds parking lot and the hatchery ponds farther up the river.
38 Species in total. Details at http://ebird.org/ebird/view/checklist?subID=S14952432 Highlights include: * Ladder-backed Woodpecker* -- 1 (not too uncommon, but always a treat to see one) * Evening Grosbeak* -- 1 heard & seen; seems early to be down this low? * Northern Waterthrush* -- 1 along the creek near the parking lot * Black Phoebe* -- 2 (1 ad, 1 imm) * Eastern Phoebe* -- 1 * Phoebe sp.* -- 1 probably Eastern, but seen briefly at a distance through brush, and it looked a little darkish. Probably an eastern, but I'm cautious since hybrids are being found up the river in Fremont Co.
