Last Tuesday, June 3, Geoff Heinecken and I, Bob Keiffer, conducted the Laytonville (Branscomb Road) Breeding Bird Survey. At our stop 16 we had two buntings singing. One was definitely a Lazuli Bunting, but double checking my ears with the Merlin app, it picked out Indigo Bunting. We tried to get a visual on the bird but could not … and had to continue with the survey route. So this location is about 7.5 miles from the Laytonville intersection with Hwy 101. Coordinates are 39.62129, -123.55767, in a riparian flat on the SW side of the Branscomb Rd. There was also a MacGillivray’s Warbler singing there. It would be great if someone could check this site out and confirm with a visual. Good luck. <rjkeiffer...>
