A few birders and I saw a couple CLARK'S NUTCRACKERS today up at Loma Prieta. Sorry, don't know all the last names... Ann, Tasha, and I went before sunrise, but ended up seeing them later at around 1015. They flew overhead, silent, around here: https://maps.app.goo.gl/pQnhtF3u9fnY2ATn8?g_st=ac We also saw Dave L. and Alex later in the morning, and they saw the same birds overhead just a moment later, since they were further down the road. We saw 2; they saw 3 apparently. We also had 2 likely CASSIN'S FINCHES, heard only, near the coffee berry location, further east. Possible flyovers, or maybe just skulky. Not seen. A Merlin was doing the rounds overhead near the first Mayman's flat road, and a Peregrine was cruising overhead just a bit further west, later in the morning. Lots of good looks at Sooty Fox Sparrow.
