This afternoon at the end of Old Oak Glen Avenue where Llagas Creek feeds into Chesbro Reservoir, an Osprey was fishing (successfully). I spotted two Forster's Terns, and a single calling male Tricolored Blackbird in a group of Red-winged Blackbirds. Golden-crowned and White-crowned Sparrows were still present. No Wood Ducks today, but the area was active, with Snowy Egret, Double-crested Cormorant, and Ring-necked Ducks still in the middle of the lake. Singing Yellow-rumped and Wilson's Warblers along the road. I was also happy to see a bushy-tailed Western Gray Squirrel.
