[cobirds] Valco Ponds this a.m.

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.

Good birding,
