I was just a few minutes late, but the Tropical Kingbird was just north of the wooden railing this morning. It was well seen by Fred Safier and photographed by a mostly non-birder friend, Walter. At least one Cackling Goose was on the lawn between the concrete pond and the rose garden, four common sparrows and the CA Towhee were all seen, some Buffleheads and Ring-necked Ducks remain, along with the Common Goldeneye. A Mockingbird came to the ground south of the equestrian rings to investigate the seeds I throw for the sparrows, then looked around as if to say, "That's it?" Hugh B.

This early afternoon we braved the wind and rain to participate in the Great Backyard Bird Count. We were rewarded with two Bald Eagles simultaneously soaring directly above the east end of the dam, one carrying nesting material. Let's hope they establish their nest where we all can see it.

Took a late drive to Waterfront Road in Martinez today and drove east, crossed the railroad tracks and parked at the TransMontaigne Pipeline trailhead just before 5 PM. I walked way out and spent quite a bit of time waiting while dusk unfolded. White-tailed Kites, Northern Harriers, and at least one Turkey Vulture kept me looking, but finally I had two Short-eared Owls flying pretty far out there. From my angle, they were toward the tanker dock for the Tosco refinery at Avon. By the time I made it back to the car it had been at least 1-1/4 hours, but I was able to escape any rain. It was an enjoyable evening. A warning though about driving Waterfront Road right now. There are several flooded areas and the entry for the TransMontaigne parking area is more than a foot deep. This is definitely not for the faint of heart. Hugh B. HarveyWalnut Creek -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- Groups.io Links: You receive all messages sent to this group.

The calm before the storm at Lake Merritt in Oakland. Lots of the usual wintering birds, plus a not-as-common one, a Hooded Merganser (immature male, I think). I was hoping to see a Barrow's Goldeneye, but didn't spot one. I recorded video of cooperating birds all the way around the lake.

Heard not seen. One really loud call on my way to the car. Hammering sounds in the distance The tree across the street from me was cut down due to a lot of internal rot. My tree where the Nutalls nested is still up. Will be interesting to see where they end up. Also, looks like a later spring. Plum trees that for years were blossoming in late January have yet to really erupt in the first week of February.

My wife and I managed to arrive while the bird was still in the flowering (prunes?). We had really good views of it for about 10 minutes, until it went around the corner of the sedge. All of us walked over and looked to see if it was on the other side of the patch of sedge or if it would come out, but of course no luck. (It was easy to find. Just look for a group of people with cameras and/or binoculars, all aimed at the same spot.)

This afternoon I got lunch at Doyle Hollis Park with a couple of friends and looked for the continuing Palm Warbler. We had a brief view of the bird in a tree along 62nd shortly after we first arrived, around 1:30, but it quickly flew off to the northeast, apparently to the gated parking lot across the street. After lunch, around 2:30, we found it again at the edge of the sedges to the west of the bathroom before it flew back into the trees along 62nd. It was much more cooperative this time and gave good looks for maybe fifteen minutes before it disappeared in a small patch of sedges in the sidewalk.

Hi Everyone, This morning I got to the park around 8:45 and strolled the pretty landscaped grounds for a few minutes (worried that I had left my car in a street cleaning day zone), but figured . . . this little guy is worth a ticket! Luckily, I did not get a ticket, and even more fortunate, I actually spotted the bird . . . ! . . . with the help of a young mother in tow with front papoose and binos. She called me over and alerted me to the bird's presence. I managed three photos (none very good) and a 4-second video. (If interested in a glimpse, in case you weren't as fortunate as I to have spotted the bird, google gambolinman + youtube + palm warbler.) I hope to post a short piece at my blog on this wonderful - wayward? - visitor to Emeryville.

I went back today looking for the Palm Warbler which I missed yesterday. Though it was the briefest of glimpses, the Palm Warbler was in the bushes near the taco truck at the southwest corner of Doyle Hollis Park. There is a small triangle of landscaping near the taco truck, the most prominent bush has reddish branches and is hard to miss. The Palm Warbler moved at the bottom of the bush and I was able to see the bright yellow vent area as the bird disappeared around the bush to the right. It seemed to move behind the bush to the left, but despite my patience in waiting, I never saw more than that. So I stood in line, bought a drink and walked slowly around the park again before finally heading off. Other birds seen include an Anna's Hummingbird, two California Towhees, 3-4 White-crowned Sparrows and a few Rock Pigeons. At least I saw part of it. Hugh B.

Hi everybody and thanks to the many people who answered my message earlier today. I went to Claremont Canyon in the afternoon and, with very detailed instructions, had no trouble finding the spot where the summer tanager had been seen. I stayed there for a couple of hours (from a little after 3pm to almost sunset) but the bird did not show up. In the very nice weather I enjoyed the acorn woodpeckers (up to three) thinking that the oak tree is their private property, often chasing the Nuttal's woodpeckers that try to feed there also. Other birds I identified include bushtits, oak titmice, Oregon juncos, California towhees. I thank also the people that volunteered to show me around during my stay in Berkeley (which is about ten more days). I am not sure about my week-end plans yet, but if I'll have time for birding I'll get in touch with some of you.

I left early today for my union meeting in Oakland, thinking I could find the Palm Warbler in Emeryville in the park at Hollis and 62nd Street. It did not work in the 1/2-hour or so I had there, 11:20 to maybe 11:50. I did find Tim Howe and Ed Vine, though.

Mt. Diablo Audubon Society had a very successful field trip to the Martinez area today. We birded McNabney Marsh from the north and south, a bit of the Pt. Edith Trail from the TransMontaigne Pipeline, and parts of Martinez Regional Shoreline near the marina along the river. When I left, our 23 participants had seen/heard 77 species. Highlights include 3 falcon species, Merlin, Am Kestrel and a Peregrine Falcon which landed on one of the islands in McNabney Marsh. We had 14 species of waterfowl, which included up to 12 Blue-winged Teals in the south end of McNabney along the entry road to Mt. View Sanitary. We also had a Caspian Tern flying near the old ferry pier at the Martinez Marina. This was the second of this species seen on our field trips in less than a week. Another was seen last Saturday at Shollenberger Park in Petaluma. The 5 gull species included a young Glaucous-winged Gull and 3 Thayer's (now Iceland) Gulls, all seen from the south observation platform for McNabney Marsh. Hugh B.

Around 11:30am today there was a single male Mountain Bluebird on Patterson Pass Rd about one mile east of the summit, past an unnumbered windfarm gate. This stretch of road has been a traditional spot for Mtn BBs but this the first for me here in two years.Dave Weber,MilpitasBy phone -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- Groups.io Links: You receive all messages sent to this group.

1) Please double-post to both Yahoo and Groups.io until Sialia has made the transition, otherwise your posts will be lost from the Archive link there. Sightings which are not shared that way will be forwarded until that is completed. 2) Check your Spam folders regularly; email providers are getting aggressive, and posts to groups like ours (both Yahoo and GIO) are getting lost for some folks. Quickly mark them as "not-spam" or you may be unable to get any future sightings except online. 3) If you have had old photos on the Yahoo group which you would like saved, either post a link to them on EBB-Sightings GIO, or request a download before the old group is discontinued. 4) It has been suggested that EBB-Sightings and EBB-Discussion should be merged. <EBB-Discussion...> is an excellent place to share your opinions on that question.

I found a leucistic Black Phoebe on Saturday at the drainage canal sort of place near the intersection of Rheem Blvd and Fay Hill Road where Fay Hill Road intersects with Frontiers Drive. It has a creamy gray head and an all white back and wings. It was calling and fly-catching and looking very flashy in this plumage. I hope it stays safe from predators.

Good evening birders, I birded Wildcat Creek and Wildcat Marsh this afternoon after blissing out at the Keller Cove herring run. Best bird was a Short-eared Owl flying over the marsh and perching on a couple posts at about 3:30 pm. Viewed it from the junction of Wildcat Creek and Wildcat Marsh trails. Also found a Greater White-fronted Goose with a small flock of Canada Geese. They were in the last pond before the Landfill Loop parking lot, the pond with the big solar panels surrounded by low cat-tails.

This afternoon I had a Townsend's Warbler show up briefly in my yard (near Morcom Rose Garden). This has happened only a couple times in past years. I think it was a female first year (judging by the pix in Sibley FG). And the White-throated Sparrows continue to show up at my feeders (they've been coming for 6 weeks).

Thanks for all the tips on where to find the Summer Tanager! It was right where Robert Firehock said in his Groups.io message, frequenting the 2nd oak tree in a row of 3 just south of the tree swing area after the 2nd switchback. It is feeding at the woodpecker holes about 3/4s the way up the tree, perhaps getting insects caught in the sap. We saw him at approx 3 PM today. I had trouble posing on the other site, so I'm posting here.

I originally posted the report below on EBB groups.io but then saw that it did not appear on sialia. I went back and read the recent posts from the webmaster, but confess I don't understand them or maybe just don't have the patience. Hence the re-posting here on yahoogroups. Please excuse any bad cyber-habits on my part. Upon reading Ryan Bartling's post on the herring spawn at Pt. Richmond this morning, Charlie and I motored from the Berkeley Marina to Brooks Island, arriving around 10 a.m. Much of the feasting may have concluded, but thousands of birds were present along the shoreline and breakwater and in the bay. It was a nice surprise to see a group of 17 BRANT among the scaup. The following eBird record has conservative estimates and includes some passable photos taken on my Canon-ito to show a fraction of the abundance. We stayed at a distance from the assembly, hence numbers designated to gull sp, cormorant sp, etc. https://ebird.org/view/checklist/S52032881 Judith Dunham Berkeley, CA [Non-text portions of this message have been removed] ------------------------------------ Posted by: Judith Dunham <jldunham...> ------------------------------------ To unsubscribe go to: <EBB_Sightings-unsubscribe...> To contact the list Administrator go to: <EBB_Sightings-owner...> ------------------------------------ Yahoo Groups Links <> To visit your group on the web, go to: http://groups.yahoo.com/group/EBB_Sightings/ <> Your email settings: Individual Email \| Traditional <> To change settings online go to: http://groups.yahoo.com/group/EBB_Sightings/join (Yahoo!

We saw 2 black scoters about a week ago at Richmond Marina, but have been looking and didn't see them until today. We thought they may have just been passing through. But we saw the 2 males again today and they were calling. They have been hanging around in the boat docks E and D. They were close to the walkway to the right side of Dock E, just across from Salute today. Many birders may remember the little forlorn black scoter who was always calling and chasing female scaups in previous years. We figure one of these is him and he brought a buddy. Hope they stay awhile, they are so much fun to listen to. In the same area near Salute, there was a snow goose and her(?) entourage of 8 white-fronted geese. We have been seeing this entourage on and off for about a month, and they move from the Salute-Rosie pathway over to across from Friendship park. They are very approachable. Oh, and the weather is glorious - lucky we live California! E.

Ran into Bob Dunn and Tracy Farrington this morning near the dog park crosswalk. They saw the Tropical Kingbird where the sidewalks meet between the concrete and mostly natural ponds. It was long gone by my arrival. But together we viewed the nearby juvenile male Common Goldeneye and the Merlin atop a conifer just west of the dog park. Another observer said he had the Common Gallinule at the very south end of the big pond. On the north ball fields were about 200 gulls, almost all of them Mews. Probably less than ten of them were Ring-billed. I counted 192 total, but they were moving a bit. They were later flushed by a jogger. At the Contra Costa Canal end of that ball field parking lot, I found a nice Red-breasted Sapsucker. In the same area were Robins, a White-breasted Nuthatch, a Cedar Waxwing and a couple of Lesser Goldfinches. Hugh B.

In addiction to the usual suspects in the park today, a Marsh Wren was singing on the west side in the reeds.

BIRDERS and ALL, John Sterling and I are hosting a GULL identification class on February 9th and 10th. There are a few spots left, so don't wait to join us. The first day we will gather at my home in El Dorado Hills. My house backs up to a riparian area and home to many different bird species. Our day will begin with a Continental breakfast in our back area, while we enjoy watching the many, many birds that come to our feeders and seed. Throughout the day, we will cover various aspects of gull identification, including many, different gull images with lecture and I.D.tips of the more common species that occur regularly as well as the scarce vagrant larids. Our second day is spent birding at various locations we have identified from scouting areas with big gull concentrations. We begin our day early, meeting up to carpool from a easy accessible location for all. Use the link below to sign up. See you then!
