Subject: [southbaybirds] Birding Calero Creek Trail
Hi Everyone,

This morning I birded the Calero Creek Trail from Harry Rd. It was fairly
quiet, but saw a WOOD DUCK in the creek, an ASH-THROATED FLYCATCHER, and
WESTERN KINGBIRD at the model airplane field, and a small group of
CALIFORNIA QUAIL on the dry side of the hill. The bird of the day though
was a BARN OWL that flew from an oak tree not far from Harry Rd into the
oak tree above me. I wasn't able to find it again though. Maybe the low
flying TURKEY VULTURE nearby spooked it from its roost?

Happy birding,
Dorothy Johnson
San Jose
