Tweets - the day was probably a bit too nice. Needed only a couple of
sweaters this morning, and after the fog burned off, it was sunny and warm.
We heard a lot, but had trouble finding views of birds; perhaps many of them
are so busy with their lives that they just don't have time to perch in the
open. Plus, too many leaves and too many mosquitoes.

Highlights:

BUFFLEHEAD Lingering female, seen late on the lake
Green Heron One at Rowing Club
Barn Owl Matt had one at like 4:30 a.m.
R.-breasted Sapsucker Bringing food to the nest hole s. of dog area
WESTERN KINGBIRD One flycatching at north edge of grass fields 7-8-9
Warbling Vireo Copulating, while female had nest
materials in her beak!
RED-EYED VIREO MaryFrances Mathis had one near the East Meadow
Black-headed Grosbeak Great looks
Western Tanager Some nice looks
LAZULI BUNTING Killer views at Compost Piles - 2+ males
Bullock's Orioles Several sightings - males chasing each
other
Evening Grosbeak Two uncooperative flocks flying away

Juveniles (mostly seen being fed by parents):
Canada Goose
Mallard
Red-breasted Sapsucker (heard in nest hole)
Bewick's Wren
Brown Creeper
American Robin

For the day,64 species. Red-eyed Vireo was the only new one for the 2007
list.
