Hi Everyone!
This morning I birded three of the picnic areas at Stevens Creek CP: Villa Maria, Chestnut and Baytree. The whole park was very active with *Dark-eyed Juncos*, *Oak Titmice*, *White and Golden-crowned Sparrow*s, *Acorn Woodpeckers* and *White-breasted Nuthatches*. But my favorite area was walking along the rim trail starting at Baytree. The berries on the madrones and toyons were attracting *Townsend's Warblers*, *Purple Finches* and *Northern Flickers*. I also spotted a *Yellow Warbler* (unusual for this location) and a *Hutton's Vireo*. And, the *Red-breasted Sapsucker* (I like to think of this bird as Dave Zittin's) returned to the very large Western Sycamore in the center of the Baytree picnic area.
