The beautiful day we have all been waiting for. Very birdy day at the park,
with Evan Houston and Brien Meilleur.

Only shorebirds were Dunlin (1), Spotted Sandpiper (1), Wilson's Snipe (1)
and Killdeer (several).
Warblers included Orange-crowned (around 20), Wilson's (almost as many),
Nashville (at least 4), Townsend's (1), Black-throated Gray (1), Yellow (1
or 2), Common Yellowthroat (3) and gobs of Yellow-rumped (mostly
Audubon's).
Flycatchers: Hammond's (1 or 2), Pacific-slope, Western Wood-Pewee and
another, possibly Willow.
Other notables:
Cassin's (4) and Warbling (~16) Vireo.
Black-headed Grosbeak (1 visible and singing male)
Western Tanager (3)
Band-tailed Pigeon (2 fly-overs)
Vaux's Swift (dozens +)
California Quail
Lincoln's Sparrow
