Hi Everyone--
Marcia Marvin and I spent this morning 8/26 at Crow Valley Campground. The
northwest corner was the busiest spot, full of montane migrants. Warblers
included Orange-crowned, Yellow, Townsend's, MacGillivray's, and Wilson's. I
heard and briefly saw a Least Flycatcher. A Hermit Thrush with a redder than
usual back was interesting (it didn't look like the usual auduboni, but I
can't say I know what subspecies it was). There were a few pewees around,
and Eastern and Western Kingbirds. A Baltimore Oriole showed briefly; we had
rather better looks at several Bullock's Orioles. Two Red-breasted
Nuthatches were getting water from a hopelessly small puddle.
We ate lunch at the group picnic area, where a Silver-haired Bat landed
right over us. We watched it circle the barbecue grill a few times before it
settled into the eaves for the day.
