Downy Woodpecker    1

Dusky Flycatcher          1

House Wren     2

Swainson’s Thrush        1

Hermit Thrush   1

Orange-crowned Warbler         2

Common Yellowthroat  1

Chipping Sparrow        2

House Sparrow            1

 

Closed this Friday (9/20) and next Tuesday (9/24).  Otherwise open daily from now throught the end of next week.
