Bryan, To Bill Ford's comments, I saw Black Terns at Prewitt Res last Tues the 11th, Prewitt Res inlet canal (dirt road S of the reservoir with numerous turn-ins toward the canal) is where I most often see Yellow-billed Cuckoos, in the more open fields with russian olives and other deciduous bushes / smaller trees. I didn't see them last Tues but it was a hot mid-day. I'm not sure if they're vocalizing now, early might be best.
