All, Migration was minimal this AM. In the watchpoint area I had a Western Kingbird and a couple of Warbling Vireos move through. There were several each of BH Groabeak and Lazuli Bunting but they were hangingout in an area of weedygrass where there was a flock yesterday so I wasn't sure if there active migrants. I relocated fairly early to mid-canyon where the almost total absence of migrant warbler song was obvious. However, I had good looks at a Cassin's Vireo and an early Swainson's Thrush and heard a chat here. Yet again Common Loons were moving up canyon. Perhaps someone with sharper eyes than me might actually get to see, rather than just hear, them. -- Nick Lethaby Goleta, CA nlethaby@... Mobile: 805 284 6200 -- Nick Lethaby Goleta, CA |
