I went over again on 11/27 from 12:45-4:05, this
time starting from the parking lot and going clockwise. I stopped
to look at a few birds, but mostly was trying to get to the other
side between 1-1:30 to check the willows.
I waited quietly near the willow/trashcan area on the south side of the lake. At 1:35, I saw the Yellow-bellied Sapsucker that has been around during the last couple of CBCs on the older willow on the lake side of the trail at that intersection. I mostly viewed it from east/SE of that tree; it seemed to like the shaded north side. Sometimes it was a little shy, moving behind where I couldn't see it, but I stayed there for an hour and watched it five different times. *Canada Goose White-crowned Sparrow Golden-crowned Sparrow California Towhee American Robin Anna's Hummingbird Ruby-crowned Kinglet (one was singing) Mallard American Coot *Double-crested Cormorant Nuttall's Woodpecker Downy or Hairy woodpecker (only heard the pik/peek call) Western Scrub-jay Steller's Jay Yellow-rumped Warbler Song Sparrow Red-shouldered Hawk Hermit Thrush Hutton's Vireo *Western Bluebird *Bewick's Wren *Lesser Goldfinch Spotted Towhee Belted Kingfisher Black Phoebe Brown Creeper American Crow Chestnut-backed Chickadee Band-tailed Pigeon *Northern Flicker *Dark-eyed Junco *Pied-billed Grebe *Cedar Waxwing *Varied Thrush, 3-4 on lawn with robins, one with what looked like an acorn Oak Titmouse (*I didn't get these on 11/22) Debbi Brusco Hayward
