Eaton Cemetery Highlights (basically very noisy due to leaf clean-up crews)
Yellow-rumped Warbler (3)
Red-breasted Nuthatch (1)
Ruby-crowned Kinglet (1)
Crow Valley Campground and Briggsdale Highlights (basically very quiet due to no movement of birds)
Red-bellied Woodpecker male continues, mostly in Russian-olives and Siberian Elms near the Picnic Shelter, calls often.
Hairy Woodpecker (couldn't tell which form)
Downy Woodpecker (eastern form)
Northern Flicker (including a pure-looking Yellow-shafted)
Brown Creeper (1)
Lapland Longspur (several flyovers giving "teeeeuw" note)
Song Sparrow (1)
few Dark-eyed Juncos
Townsend's Solitaire (2)
[Hosts appear to be gone for the season, septic system cleaning truck visited in prep for shut down of cg for winter, main gate still open up by the highway for drive-in (not sure for how long. A few puddles remain in Crow Creek along the north edge of the campground and out along the Mourning Dove Trail northeast of the north gate. Lots of grasshoppers, lacewings, small dung beetles, wasps, etc., still active in the warm weather. Saw one winter form Question-Mark butterfly. Loose herd of about 25 Pronghorn in the big open area north of the primitive campsites along the Mourning Dove Trail.]
Merlin (south of the Briggsdale football field sitting on big round hay bale, flew off to the west, couldn't get a handle on its race or gender)
