I always expect places like Black Lake Meadows to be swarming with warblers
these days, but I haven't hit the great flocks others are reporting. This
morning between about 7 and 8 I only saw one Wilson's and one Yellow, a
possible Warbling Vireo (too high in the tree to be sure), and a Western
Tanager, plus the usual birds, of course, including Bewick's Wren and the
various swallows. Oh, yes--a pair of quail in the wetland; very pretty.
Also a pair of deer and a coyote. Pleasant, but not great. Someone please
push all those warblers and vireos this way.
