Date: 6/16/19 2:54 pm From: Steve Perry <s-perry...> Subject: [SanDiegoRegionBirding] Heron Big Day!
As a Father's Day gift to myself, I got up predawn and headed to San Elijo Lagoon. I'll post to ebird later, but got lovely views of an American Bittern AMBI stalking prey in the pools between Stonebridge and Sta Helena. Also present were Great Blue Heron, GBHE, Great Egret GREG, and Snowy Egret SNEG, and a flyover Black-crowned Nightheron BCNH. As I was at 5 herons by 7.30 am, I dashed to the Del Mar Fairgrounds for the pair of Yellow-crowned Nightherons YCNH on the nest by the fire station, and a green heron GRHE on the San Dieguito River, taking me to 7 Ardeidae for the morning. As I still have plenty of daylight left, can I make it more? San Diego River for Little Blue Heron LBHE and possibly Reddish Egret REEG.... tempting!
Happy Father's Day birding, everyone!

This month's SDFO meeting will be on Tuesday, June 18, at 6:00 PM, in the Hoffman Room of the San Diego Foundation Building.
We are pleased this month to welcome our featured speaker, Rustom Jamadar, to present “Birds of India.”Rustom Jamadar is a San Diego resident who has traveled to India annually for the past three years to bird different regions there. Rustom grew up in India and first birded there in 1982. He was introduced to birding when he was in college in Texas and cut his birding teeth in the Rio Grande Valley. Over the last seven years Rustom has been birding regularly in the San Diego area as well as in other parts of the U.S., in Central and South America, and in India. Rustom has been a Life Member of the Bombay Natural History Society and a member of the National Audubon Society for over 30 years. In recent years he has joined local Audubon chapters, and can be spotted on their field trips.
Next month’s program: Tuesday, July 16, same time, same place. U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service employee John Martin will give a talk on the San Diego National Wildlife Refuge and its role in bird conservation.
It's not too late to pay your annual dues. Please see me at the meeting or contact me off line.

Saturday, June 15th, a female GREATER SCAUP was off the parking lot at J St./Marina Parkway in Chula Vista. There are no summer records for the county listed in the SD Atlas, but perhaps there have been a couple such reports since it was published (?). Wouldn't be surprised given how many Greaters winter on the Bay. Also today, the casual-in-summer HORNED GREBE I first saw from J St. on the June 3rd was now farther west, visible from the Biological Study Area parking lot at the bottom of the Silver Strand, looking east. At the saltworks, uncommon-ish summering shorebirds included 18 Red Knots (1 in full alternate) and 3 Ruddy Turnstones. A basic-plumaged COMMON LOON was "inland" at the lower end of Sweetwater Reservoir, and a female Cinnamon Teal with 8 ducklings was at the upper end of the reservoir.

On Thursday the 13th, there was a record-count from shore of 2500 Black Storm-Petrels at La Jolla, soon after dawn. A large percent of the birds were to the NNW over the canyon. Numbers dropped off a little over the ensuing two hours, but there were still 1500+ when I departed. Otherwise, 80 Black-vented Shearwaters, but not much else.
On Friday the 14th, there is a summering, female Ring-necked Duck at Santee Lakes (Lake #3). Also the continuing couple Acorn Woodpeckers that have been there for ca. 5 years since the coastal-slope incursion back then. Nearby, at the Carlton Oaks Golf Course, the new colony of Double-crested Cormorants has five active nests.

Thank you for finding a bird considered a nemesis for many local birders. Also, thank you for working to preserve access to sites like this for when something special little the Red-eyed Vireo pops up. As we all saw with the Hooded Warbler in Del Mar last year access can be blocked to these privately owned areas. I appreciate the reminder.

Wednesday morning at 6:30 a.m. there is a Red-eyed Vireo singing away in Tierrasanta in a park that is actually private, but it's okay. From Clairemont Mesa Boulevard east of Santo Road about three-quarters of a mile turn on Mollendo Boulevard and go just a short block and park and you're facing straight ahead at the green space and you'll see tennis courts straight ahead and the bird is singing in trees around the tennis courts.

A friend just emailed me about a sighting, with close-up photo (below), of a Chukar a relative of his saw and photographed in the Crosby Estates area, which (I believe) is along the San Dieguito River west of Lake Hodges. Chukars are not listed in the Bird Atlas.
Does anyone know if there have been any other sightings of Chukar in the county post-2004? I assume this one is either introduced or escaped (or both).
Thanks for any feedback on Chukars anyone might have.

So for the past year or so, looks like all those (non-Western) tanager reports from Villa La Jolla Park, by Alex Abela and others, may NOT be a conspiracy after all, heh heh! A Summer Tanager failed to elude me there at about 10:00 this morning. Female plumage, but with red on upper breast.
A try earlier for the Red-eyed Vireo over at La Jolla Summit, probably after Paul L was there, had no sign nor sound of the bird.
Good Birding,

Date: 6/10/19 8:41 am From: <lehman.paul...> via Groups.Io <lehman.paul=<verizon.net...> Subject: [SanDiegoRegionBirding] San Diego pelagic results, June 9th
The San Diego pelagic trip on June 9th aboard "Grande" out as far as the 30-Mile Bank, and sponsored by Buena Vista Audubon Society, experienced light winds and very light seas. Best birds of the trip were 2 Craveri's Murrelets, which have now showed up off San Diego already in June for the past four years in a row, a Black-footed Albatross, 3 Leach's Storm-Petrels, good numbers of Ashy Storm-Petrels, and still numbers of Scripps's Murrelets (often gone locally by mid-June). Good looks at almost all the species encountered. The species and numbers seen offshore, beyond 2 miles out, are as follows:
Black-footed Albatross: 1 (very good views near the south end of 30-Mile Bank)
Pink-footed Shearwater: 8 (low)
Sooty Shearwater: 180
Black-vented Shearwater: 75
Leach's Storm-Petrel: 3 (30-Mile Bank)
Ashy Storm-Petrel: 45
Black Storm-Petrel: 450
Pacific Loon: 3 (northbound, basic plumage)
Double-crested Cormorant: 2 (well offshore)
Brandt's Cormorant: 5
Brown Pelican: 14
Scripps's Murrelet: 12
CRAVERI'S MURRELET: 2 (an adult and fully-grown young bird(?) together along inside edge of 30-Mile Bank; photos)
Cassin's Auklet: 130 (good number for June)
Heermann's Gull: 2
California Gull: 1
Western Gull: 110
Least Tern: 6 (including several well offshore at 30-Mile Bank, which seems to be a regular phenomenon)
Elegant Tern: 150
Eurasian Collared-Dove: 1

First off, Monday morning early, we are standing at the Red-eyed Vireo spot in La Jolla and are NOT hearing a Red-eyed vireo. So it may well be gone. But we'll give it a while longer. Highlights of yesterday's San Diego pelagic trip out to the 30-Mile Bank included a very cooperative duo of Craveri's Murrelets (my spell-check corrected it to "cranberries merlotte's") and good looks at a Black-footed albatross. I will post the full results from the trip in a few hours.

The Point Loma residential Magnolia Warbler present all day yesterday appears to be gone this morning. No sign of it in over two hours of several birders looking and listening. Not a surprise, given that a good half of the late spring landbird migrants are one-day wonders anyway, irrespective of the weather. The only migrant I saw in the neighborhood this morning was a singing male Western Tanager.

We observed them for 30 minutes, and they were still visible and very active when we left. We also captured some video with their calls audible. The exact location is at the junction of Rios Avenue and Gibson Point. They are in the landscaping on the south side of Gibson Point, but they also occasionally flew across Rios to bushes in the yard of the house on the corner of Rios and Seabright. While not mentioned in the Atlas, they have been recorded in Encinitas, but no breeding confirmed. Brennan had one in San Elijo Lagoon last year, so they seem to be expanding and doing well. Has anyone else seen evidence of breeding in the county?

Over the past three days there has still been a trickle of typical early-June landbird migrants passing through, including a few W. Wood-Pewees, Willow Flycatchers, Swainson's Thrushes, and Western Tanagers. Singing Swainson's Thrushes at Sorrento Valley, along the SD River near the SD Mission, and along the SD River west of Mast Park (2) are all presumably on territory. A Phainopepla at Pt. Loma Nazarene Univ. on 4 June was probably an early post-breeding disperser from somewhere else. Seems as though there's been a noticeable influx in Marbled Godwit numbers already starting around the 3rd or so, which if not just a shuffling of unknown over-summering birds would suggest that a lot of failed breeders have come back already over 2-3 weeks early this year. A Brant and 1 or 2 Reddish Egrets continue on south San Diego Bay, and there are 9 Ruddy Turnstones and 2 Western Sandpipers at the saltworks. Finally, at least 7 adult and 2 family-groups of 11 duckling Redheads are at San Dieguito Lagoon in Del Mar, the only quasi-consistent breeding locality in the county.

Spaces are available for Sunday's pelagic trip, and we are going. The weather forecast is great and seas will be kind. We have plenty of spaces, and should right up to departure. I suggest if you come to H & M Landing to purchase a ticket, you do so an hour before the 7 a.m. departure. Recent signings on both land and sea have been very interesting. I hope you'll join us.

Great Bird Justin! Thanks for sharing. For those of you who couldn’t make it out today, or did and didn’t get good looks, I just posted a new video that got pretty decent looks at movements, behavior, and attributes. I hope you enjoy!

The male Golden-winged Warbler at the upper end of Presidio Park continues as of 10:40 a.m. The bird prefers oak trees and it originated in and has returned to the several Oaks on the slope that are at the southeast corner of the loop road at the top end of the park. At one point it went north to the oaks that are on the north side of the bathrooms, but it has returned to the original spot on the slope. The bird can bury itself in the thick foliage and be impossible to see for several minutes at a time. On a number of occasions it has done some singing, if you can still hear that frequency.

County Coordinators/Contributors:
The Spring Migration Season (1 March through 31 May 2019) is ended, and we solicit reports for inclusion in the Southern California Region of NORTH AMERICAN BIRDS. Reports should be arranged with species in the taxonomic order followed by the American Ornithologists Union (Check-List of North American Birds 1998 and all Supplements) and the American Birding Association (7th edition of the ABA Checklist, 2009 revised through the current report). Reports of species included on the California Bird Records Committee (CBRC) review list
must be accompanied by documentation (written description, photographs, etc.). Similar documentation should also accompany reports of species unusual for the location or season. Full names, with all initials, should be used in the reports (this reduces the potential for different observers having the same initials, and makes it simpler to acknowledge contributors) - John P. Doe in lieu of John Doe.
Reports should be sent to the appropriate County Coordinators (listed below) or directly to Guy McCaskie by 24 June 2019. NORTH AMERICAN BIRDS can not exist without your input.

Hi Birders, A Black-headed/Rose-breasted Grosbeak was heard singing throughout the morning in one of my neighbors yards on Sunday, June 2, 2019. I was never able to locate it when I had time to search. Much later in the day while folks were over for a BBQ the bird briefly appeared at one of my water features and it was a male Rose-breasted Grosbeak! Needless to say I got excited (perhaps over-excited) and folks got a life bird whether they wanted to or not. I wasn't prepared to document with a photo. A Willow Flycatcher also stopped by my yard briefly for most to see. Although the Rose-breasted Grosbeak is not a new yard bird, it's only the second and always a welcomed treat. Willow Flycatchers visiting my yard are annual but vary in numbers year-to-year.

A very unseasonal, partial-alternate HORNED GREBE was on south San Diego Bay this morning, Monday the 3rd, straight west off the J Street/Marina Parkway parking lot. This may be only the third summer-season record for the county. A continuing "Black" Brant on the mudflats there is likely attempting to summer locally. At the saltworks, a count of 7 basic-plumaged Ruddy Turnstones is fairly good for June. A basic-plumaged Common Loon off the I.B. Pier is presumably summering, and a continuing Pelagic Cormorant there would be typical at other times of the year but is somewhat unusual for summer there. As for landbird migrants in the I.B. area today, there was a Willow Flycatcher and 2 Western Wood-Pewees.

Date: 6/3/19 10:17 am From: David Povey <poveydw747...> Subject: [SanDiegoRegionBirding] Local Baja California Cook's Petrels May 31, June 1, and 2nd.
I just completed a fishing trip from San Diego to the Mexican coast. The area we fished was just south of the Coronado Islands, down to just above Ensenada, Baja California. We were never more that 30-35 nautical miles off the beach. Friday afternoon we were just 26-30 nautical miles south of Point Loma and I saw 4 *Cook's Petrels* in that area. Saturday we were west of Salsupedies (sp ?) near Ensenada, and working back up and out. That day I saw about *80* *Cook's Petrels* (likely more, as fishing can interrupt birding when glasses are put away). Many these Cook's Petrels close to the boat, and some on the water. I counted a single feeding group of 26. Winds were very light and seas flat calm. .The last day I saw 3 more *Cook's Petrels.* One of these at about 23-24 n. miles south of Point Loma. That beats my previous closest to San Diego Co. Cook's that was at 27 n.miles, and on the Mexican Side some years ago. I still need Cook's Petrel for San Diego Co. so having this many so close gives me some hope that one might wander our way, Sunday. Also of note was a *South Polar Skua* in a large raft of Sooty Shearwaters on Saturday. *Black-footed Albatross* - two on Friday, and one each Saturday and Sunday. Thousands of *Sooty Shearwaters* all three days. Maybe 100 *Pink-footed Shearwaters*, for the trip. Only two *Black-vented Shearwater* were seen, and those near Point Loma on the way out. Maybe 500 *Black Storm-Petre*l over the there days, half dozen *Leach's* and a single *Ashy* *Storm-Petrel *were noted. I saw only a single *Brown Booby *each Friday and Saturday, but had a dozen or more on Sunday Both *Red* and *Red-necked Phalarope* were seen in small numbers. (<10) I saw only 13 *Scripps's Murrelet's* one a non flying chick with an adult. Fair numbers or *Cassin's Auklets* with maybe 50-75 each day.
As a side note the boat crew mentioned than on the previous three day trip to the same area they had a *Laysan Albatross*, and *Red-billed Tropicbird.* So again this was all on the Mexican side of the border, but fairly close to home.
Dave Povey Dulzura p.s. There are still spaces on Sunday's Buena Vista Audubon's Pelagic. I hope you'll join me in my (our) search for a county bird! Call 222-1144 for a reservation.

I had a brief look at a PROTHONOTARY WARBLER near the silk oak in the alley between DuPont and Warner, a short while ago. Unfortunately, I lost track of it before I could manage a photo and haven’t been able to relocate it. There was also an OLIVE-SIDED FLYCATCHER flycatching from the top of the silk oak behind 531 Silvergate.

I went to the Dairy Mart Ponds for 2-1/2 hours this afternoon with some other birders, to look for the Indigo Bunting that Sia McGown photographed there yesterday. No luck. [Tom Benson was leaving just as I arrived and he had not seen or heard it either.]
We knew only that Sia had reported it from somewhere around the south pond, but there’s a lot of territory that falls under that label and a lot of perfectly good habitat nearby.
However, as we walked along the southwest side of the main pond at about 2:40, we flushed an adult Mississippi Kite from the same tree that one, an immature, used 4 years ago.
The bird quickly headed up into the air, caught a thermal and rose to spectacular heights before flying right across the disc of the sun, at which point, blinded, we lost it. I’m still seeing afterimages.
No idea whether it was migrating or will hang around, so if you go to Dairy Mart, keep an eye out for it.

Date: 6/1/19 4:11 pm From: <lehman.paul...> via Groups.Io <lehman.paul=<verizon.net...> Subject: [SanDiegoRegionBirding] minor miscellanea
On June 1st, shorebirds at the saltworks off the end of 13th Street in Imperial Beach included 17 Western Sandpipers (3 in full alternate), 16 Red Knots (almost all basic), and 2 Ruddy Turnstones (basic), almost all of which will certainly end up over-summering locally. The only migrant passerine I had in the TRV was a single Western Wood-Pewee. On 31 May, a visit to Jacumba was disappointing for late migrants, with just a single Western Wood-Pewee and Western Tanager, plus 4 continuing, late-lingering Cedar Waxwings, a late/summering Green Heron, 3+ continuing White-winged Doves which will probably try nesting there, a continuing pair of locally rare Cassin's Kingbirds, still plenty of Lawrence's Goldfinches, and just a single remaining Tricolored Blackbird.

A female Lazuli Bunting was in our yard on Point Loma around 2PM (June 1). From the SD Bird Atlas, it sounds like a "straggler," and I see none reported on eBird in Point Loma since May 16. (Description: bunting size and bill, warm tan color with peachy breast, pale belly, and pale wing bars.)

Some miscellanea from the past few days:
There's been a singing Western Tanager in the same grove of trees along Monument Road in the Tijuana River Valley now for at least 10 days (still present 29 May), acting as if it is on territory; but of course this species nests nowhere near the TRV!
Continuing Reddish Egret at various sites on south San Diego Bay is the only individual in town I've seen the past 6+ weeks. Still 3 active Yellow-cr. Night-Heron nests (plus 2 Black-cr. nests) next to the bathrooms in the I.B. Sports Park.
Late Spotted Sandpiper along Tijuana River in TRV on 27 May.
Lingering, non-breeding-type waterfowl this year seem to be in exceedingly short supply compared to the usual in late May. The only candidate I've seen the past couple weeks is a single continuing Red-breasted Merganser on south SD Bay. About 15 Eared Grebes continue at the saltworks.
Singing, territorial Swainson's Thrushes at the southern limit of the breeding range are near the Bird & Butterfly Garden in the TRV and at the refuge riparian re-veg site at the west end of Main Street in Chula Vista.
On 28 May, Barbara Carlson and I made a morning visit to Jacumba. Still good numbers of Lawrence's Goldfinches all about town, and we had an active N. Flicker nest and 2 pairs of Cassin's Kingbirds--both species at or just beyond their normal breeding range. The selection of late-May migrants included:
Western Wood-Pewee: 4
Pacific-slope Flycatcher: 1
Swainson's Thrush: 6
Cedar Waxwing: 8
Yellow Warbler: 2
Wilson's Warbler: 1
Western Tanager: 12
Black-headed Grosbeak: 6

Further, we request eBird users use one of the eBird hotspots for tracking this bird: 1) "San Diego River--tidal mudflats" for the spot in Ocean Beach near Robb Field 2) "stakeout Hudsonian Godwit, Mission Beach (2019)" for the spot in Mission Beach
If you've created one of various address based checklists (e.g., " 3715 Ocean Front Walk, San Diego, California, US (32.783, -117.254)") or some variation on one of the above locations, please consider merging it with the appropriate hotspots.
In the description of the bird you can, and should, add details as to where you saw the bird (between which lifeguard towers, near which bridge, etc.)
3) In the future, when using the eBird app, after selecting Start New Checklist, please select *Choose a Nearby Hotspot* if you're birding at a place that people frequent (typically the case if you are following directions to a recent rare bird).
4) Finally, if you haven't already, please consider taking the free eBird Essentials course:

The Hudsonian Godwit (HUGO) was originally re-sighted, but now on the beach, yesterday around mid-day by Ross Christie. On a gambit, Ross rode his bike along Mission Beach looking for the HUGO. He thought he had a 5-10% chance of re-finding it. And the rest is history!
Today birders knew to try for it along Mission Beach because Ross braved the hordes of Homo sapiens on Memorial Day!
The original finder of the HUGO, back at Robb Field, was a fellow named Daniel Hite, from the Phoenix area.

I know who found the bird at Robb Field but how did someone find it later on the beach?

I am leaving but just a little bit ago the godwit flew north and landed close to lifeguard tower 21. I though San Rafael PL. looked like a close cross street. Several other birders are present.

Well, Camille and I came racing all the way back from Arizona, communicating with Paul and pulled into Robb Field about 6:30 to see Gary Nunn and Dan Cooper on the bird. Dan walk from the water up to the bike path to make sure Camille and I got to see our lifer Hudsonian. It is a big deal to me that Dan did this as I am having a hip replacement in August and he knew I could not get down to the rocks. Dan, thank you so very much. Anyhow, bird was still very happily feeding and hopefully sticks around for a few days.

Not a rare bird sighting but thought the word should get out as some of us visit this location on a regular basis. There have been several reports in the last couple of days concerning this lion
The San Diego Fire Department has confirmed with 10News that a mountain lion attacked a child at the Los Peñasquitos Canyon Preserve.

Got photos of a Clark's grebe just west of Tern Point (overlook at end of La Carina). Also, while carefully checking all hummingbirds along La Orilla Trail for the elusive b-chinned (missed again) I had a getting late male rufous HB. I have another one still hanging out in my neighbors yard, so perhaps there are several stragglers this season.

the hudsonian godwit continues on the mud flats at Robb Field, San Diego River mouth, at 2:30 and it is finding lots of food in the mud so hopefully it will now stay put and not venture off to beaches that are absolutely covered in Homo sapiens on memorial day weekend. However, the tide is now going to start coming in and we will see how late it stays until it gets too high a tide late in the day.

The finder just posted this to Facebook:
Spotted this Hudsonian Godwit today at the San Diego River tidal Mudflats at about 8:45 this morning. It was foraging with some Marbled Godwits bouncing back and forth between the east end of Dog Beach and the center mudflat. First for San Diego I believe.

Strong winds arrived at dawn. Blowing 25-35 mph. Two Purple Martins flying over the desert calling with buzzy chirps. Female types, with pale collars.
Flycatchers dropped in over night. About 9 Pac-slope, 7 Willow, 2 Pewees hiding near the ground on the lee side of mesquite trees. All singing and calling. I should have many good photos to work with when I get home after the long weekend.
8:30 am, and seems birding is done for the day in the desert. At least I found some warm and not rainy weather.

For the past few weeks, there have been multiple sightings of a fairly aggressive mountain lion in the vicinity of the falls in Penasquitos Canyon.
[Obviously it can be anywhere in the canyon]

Date: 5/25/19 6:11 pm From: Jayne Lesley <jaynelesley...> Subject: [SanDiegoRegionBirding] San Dieguito Monthly Bird Survey - Next Sunday, June 2nd.
This is a reminder about the next San Dieguito monthly bird count. The June 2019 bird count is on the first Sunday - next Sunday, June 2nd. We are now in our tenth year of collecting bird data at the San Dieguito Lagoon.
Everyone is welcome - interested, beginners, visitors, experienced birders.
We will meet at the usual time and place: 7:30 AM at the south end of San Andres. (Turn right/south off of Via De La Valle, on the east side of I5. San Andres dead ends at the San Dieguito Lagoon.) We coordinate with park rangers to provide vests and access for the restricted areas. We'll divide into five groups to count the different areas.
We gather to tally our results at noon at the Del Mar Public Works parking lot/picnic tables off Jimmy Durante Rd.
Hope to see you next Sunday for another great day of birding.
Jayne Lesley (cell phone: 858-663-6568)

Just a note to add to Stan's report, and those of others who reported high numbers of Black Storm-petrels earlier off La Jolla. They continue indeed to the north of La Jolla. Today, May 25, a little after noon, I noted 1010 Black Storm-petrels off Torrey Pines State Beach in Del Mar, scoping from the Penasquitos River mouth, and calculating in tens doing a single horizon sweep from south to north. Most birds were distant near the horizon, but behavior and shape discernable through my scope. No doubt this was an undercount, since I was only counting birds on the eastern edge of the flock.
Happy storm-petreling,

Widely scattered with many, many over the rough water of the canyon to the north.
But about 1500 or so between shore and the canyon.
Sooty shearwaters only far out. A few black-vented shearwaters.

Date: 5/25/19 8:31 am From: Stan Walens <stan.walens...> Subject: [SanDiegoRegionBirding] La Jolla Cove, May 24: black storm-petrels down to only 2 dozen
It’s been a wonderful week at the Cove, with a once-in-a-lifetime show of sooty shearwaters and black storm-petrels.
I’ve spent nearly the entire day every day there staring through my scope. My eyes no longer focus anywhere except on the horizon…
But I’m posting to let people know that the spectacle is over.
Paul L. and other have posted maximum numbers.
I differ on only one of those: my count of sooty shearwaters on Friday May 17 was greater than the 20,000 several others have reported, but even 20K is by far the largest number ever seen in a day in San Diego County.
Numbers of black storm-petrels grew rapidly from the time they were first reported 10 days or so ago. They were very difficult to count most days because they were moving so constantly and were spread out across the ocean as far as one could see. I could count only those within maybe 1 or 1.5 miles, but still see swarms of them feeding over the depths of the canyon, 2 or more miles away.
Numbers built up to a peak of probably somewhere just shy of 2000 on May 22.
Whatever they were feeding on—and I think it was pelagic red crab eggs—attracted numerous other birds, including for several days between 75-90+ least terns.
However, yesterday, when I spent only a measly 6 hours seawatching beginning at 10:30 [so I missed the crucial first 4 hours of daylight], I began seeing the storm-petrels leaving the Cove and moving south in large numbers.
Over the 6 hours, with a lunch break in the middle, I counted around 1400 doing that. Maybe 250 or so were left in the Cove when I gave up at 6:00 pm.
I saw no least terns, and very few other birds feeding inshore.
Whatever food they were eating must be gone.
Today I got to the Cove mid-afternoon.
I counted about 30–40 black-storm petrels. As the afternoon progressed, they began moving south.
I wouldn’t be surprised to find none or only a handful in the Cove Saturday morning.
Sooty shearwaters are still moving past in small numbers, about 100/hour, but mostly far offshore except for the first hour or so after dawn.
A handful of black-vented shearwaters are still around.

This morning (5/24) I found a hatch year Vermilion Flycatcher outside the north-west corner of the baseball fields at the Morely Field Sports Complex in Balboa Park. Exact coordinates are 32.738047, -117.140418. I wonder if it could be a dispersing juvenile from the nest in Mission Bay that Paul Lehman noted had recently fledged on April 15th, or from a nearby undocumented nest.

A very early morning drive on Friday over to Jacumba was first highlighted by my 5AM passing of the Kitchen Creek Road exit, where my car thermometer read 32 degrees on May 24th. Jacumba was 42 degrees at dawn. The best bird there was an adult male Baltimore Oriole. A slightly wayward Acorn Woodpecker was seen, as was a perhaps slightly late Northern Flicker, continuing good numbers (14+) of Lawrence's Goldfinches, but only a very few remaining (4) Tricolored Blackbirds. Other migrants and miscellaneous species for late spring included:
White-winged Dove: 2
Lesser Nighthawk: 1
Nuttall's Woodpecker: 4 (active nest)
Oak Titmouse: 1
W. Wood-Pewee: 5

Keith and I birded with Eric Kallen at Point Loma Nazarene University (the path along the east edge of the campus) this morning (May 24, roughly 7:40-9:40AM). We saw Warbling Vireos (5-6 in one tree; Eric saw a larger flock go by), Western Wood-Pewees (3, I think), Townsend's Warblers (2 males), Yellow Warblers (3), a Swainson's Thrush, an Olive-sided Flycatcher, and a Pacific-slope Flycatcher. There were several juvenile juncos, bushtits, and Black Phoebes. (No parula.)

On Thursday morning there is a Northern Parula along the east edge of Point Loma Nazarene University on Point Loma. It was frequenting a very dark green broad-leafed tree on the west side of the path about 100 to 150 ft south of the south end of the parking structure. Unfortunately, the bird was being somewhat harassed by a family group of orange-crowneds, so unknown if it will be able to stay in that tree, which has some small little flower structures growing on it and which seemed attractive to the warblers. The Parula was the one and only migrant landbird I saw in my walk around campus...

It can be said that we all said that we'd never seen anything like it from shore. Early on Weds morning at La Jolla, an assemblage of Black Storm-Petrels feeding VERY, VERY close to shore in a concentrated mass on what must have been a temperature-break or current-break for the entire time we were there, and a scene which looked like the very large assemblages of tight-flying storm-petrels one sees the first second one flushes a large roosting flock off the water when on a fall pelagic trip well offshore. Anyway, our best one-scan total was 1800+ birds. Also seen during the morning were 4 Brown Boobies, a good total of 5000 Sooty Shearwaters, 2 Black-vented Shearwaters, 2 alternate-plumaged Red Phalaropes, and 7 Pacific and 2 Common Loons--of which the Pacifics were in their expected basic plumage on this late date, but one of the north-bound Common Loons was, surprisingly for the date, in full alternate plumage. Otherwise, ca. 18 Red-necked Phalaropes, a Surf Scoter, and a dozen one-year-old Heermann's Gulls (which is actually a "large" count recently).

Well, cutting down the trees should make the complex a lot less appealing place to live!
This does illustrate the potential problems with having even old reports of rarities from the site included in eBird. Some people really do mine old eBird reports for places to go birding...

Just a friendly reminder that the HOA and Board of the Ruette le Parc condo complex (Hooded Warbler spot, winter 2017-18) still frowns on non-owners birding the Ruette le Parc circle. It has been brought to my attention that there were three birders, with cameras and large lenses, birding the complex last week. ( I did not see them, and dont know who they are--perhaps out of towners). But just the same, wanted to send out a reminder to all about this unfortunate birding ban. As far as I know, birding along the adjacent Portofino Drive and other places nearby are still open to birding(public thoroughfare), but the circle, I am told, is private property. To add insult to injury, I recently learned that the HOA has decided to cut down ALL the mature tall trees in the complex next fall!! They were going to do it this spring but were convinced this wasn't a good idea because of the nesting season.

As of 9 a.m. on Monday morning, the assembled birders at the summit of Mount Soledad have seen only one single Black Swift pass by heading north, although the views were very good. An early-morning seawatch at La Jolla Cove produced 600+ Black storm- petrels and one or two adult common terns.

Hi Birders,
Obviously, always pick through the swallow and swift flocks you see. But now is a good window for Chimney to be mixed in with our expected swallows and swift flocks. Flight style alone may key you in on the unusual Chimney. Just a reminder, that it's that time.
Good Birding,

SDFO Event - May 21, 2019 at 6:00 pm is the next meeting of San Diego Field Ornithologists.
Tuesday, May 21, at 6:00 p.m., in the Hoffman Room of the San Diego Foundation Building, 2508 Historic Decatur Rd. Going south on Rosecrans St. in the Midway area of town, turn left on Roosevelt Rd. into Liberty Station and proceed a couple of blocks to Decatur. Parking is available on the street or in the adjacent parking lots.
Program: John Martin will discuss "San Diego National Wildlife Refuge and Its Role in Bird Conservation." San Diego National Wildlife Refuge supports a substantial slice of this area's distinctive biota, including a variety of bird species of conservation concern. Refuge biologist John Martin will discuss the conservation and management of birds and their habitats on this significant habitat area, right in San Diego's backyard. John Martin has served as biologist at San Diego National Wildlife Refuge since 2004. His work at the refuge has focused on monitoring, management, and habitat restoration projects for federally listed species, and species covered by San Diego's Multiple Species Conservation Plan. Prior to working on the refuge, John worked with the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service's Ecological Services office, primarily implementing the Endangered Species Act and associated conservation plans. His other bird conservation work includes a stint with the San Clemente Loggerhead Shrike recovery project, several seasons monitoring and banding migrant raptors with Hawkwatch International, and graduate work at the University of Arizona, where he formulated a habitat model of the Buff-breasted Flycatcher and
birded southeast Arizona to smithereens.
Next month's meeting: Tuesday, June 18, same time, same place. Our annual business meeting and election of club officers for 2019-2020. Program: Rustom Jamadar will discuss "The Birds of India."

Since 1 p.m. there has been a total of 64 Black Swifts in a total of 5 flocks going by Mount Soledad near La Jolla, most courtesy of Jay D. and Trent S., although Barbara and I have arrived in time to see the most recent flock of 6 birds flying by. Now that the clouds have largely disappeared they may dry up as well pretty quickly. However, more rain is possible tonight into early tomorrow morning, so perhaps tomorrow morning might work as well.

Sunday, May 19th, 1:40 pm
Just had a group of at least 6 Black Swift's fly by on Mt Soledad near the saddle at almost eye level. Currently shrouded in fog, but it lifts a little occasionally. Birds are not in sight at this time.
Good Birding!

Just after 8 a.m. on Sunday morning there was a breeding plumaged Franklin's Gull walking around in the dried-up saltworks pond that is a third of a mile east of the end of 13th Street. But in just a moment when we looked away, the bird has vanished, and we're not sure how far it has moved.......

Date: 5/18/19 1:21 pm From: Sara Baase Mayers <sarabirdingg...> Subject: [SanDiegoRegionBirding] Four Black Oystercatchers continuing at Cabrillo NM; nest building (??) Pelagic Cormorant
Three Black Oystercatchers were together on the cliff just north of the second parking lot ("tidepool overlook") at Cabrillo National Monument this morning (May 18); I saw the other from the first (southmost) parking lot.
Plenty of juveniles: A Brown Pelican with several adults on the cliffs, six Heermann's Gulls (no adults), a Brandt's Cormorant, and Cal Towhee.
One of three Pelagic Cormorants on the cliff had some loose vegetation in its bill - the sort of stuff that might be used for a nest. At the time the SD Bird Atlas was published (now about 15 years ago) it appears there was indication Pelagic Cormorants might breed along the cliffs in La Jolla or Point Loma but not definitive evidence. Now eBird shows some Pelagic Corms in May-July, so I don't know if this additional non-definitive evidence is interesting.
