Hi Everyone!
Today I visited Uvas Canyon CP (before going, get a reservation through the Santa Clara County Park system). It's a very pretty place with lots of small waterfalls and it's reliable for Olive-sided Flycatchers near Western Wood Pewees - good practice for me. Anyhow, I took the Waterfall Loop Trail to the Knobcone Point trail. It's very steep but there's a quiet picnic table at the top. Spotted along the way were at least two *Olive-sided Flycatchers* and a couple of *Western Wood Pewees*, both birds like to perch high in the bare branches of the tall dead trees. Also present were *Townsend's Warblers* and *Purple Finch*.
On the way home, I stopped by Uvas Reservoir. Two adult *Bald Eagles* were flying high overhead and a third Bald Eagle was closer to the water. This one looked like it might be that leucistic eagle that is occasionally reported but I needed a longer look.
