Following up on Peter's posts from yesterday, this is turning out to be quite a fall for ORCHARD ORIOLES at Fort Mason. This morning there were two in the Battery (female/young male), and the

See photo of deadfall hazard on middle path upslope from the pavilion. It's at the intersection with the very steep log steps cutting through the landscaped area. There are no warnings and path is

Apologies for all the OROR posts... but my OROR2 below, upon further scrutiny of all the photos, does have a couple of black feathers in the throat (I had thought shadow), so maybe this is the one

After posting below I see the other reports of one with a black bib in the garden, which none of the ones I saw had. So, maybe "3-5". Peter

Hi all - Spent a late lunch hour hoping that the (or one of the) Lewis's Woodpeckers was still around at Fort Mason. No luck there but every time I turned around there seemed to be an Orchard Oriole.

Small numbers of migrants continue to move through Fort Mason, and overwintering birds are building in numbers. The young male ORCHARD ORIOLE continues. On Saturday, there were six WESTERN

On both Sunday and Monday I did a seawatch from Sutro Baths. Although starting I little later than I had hoped, they were still good. Lots of action especially with Terns and Jaegers Sunday Northbound

In the last 30 minutes, I've had Broad-winged and Ferruginous Hawks moving south on vectors east of Buena Vista and Corona, and just now another Prairie Falcon soaring SW over Corona. All were

The middle path upslope from the pavilion has a significant deadfall hazard that is not yet cordoned off. Be watchful.

Starting around 9 working its way from bottom to top of Falls. Female. Also, several black throated grays

I had just over 1/2 hour to check the west side of North Lake yesterday Oct. 11, hoping to see the Chestnut-sided Warbler. That did not work, but had a couple of other good sightings. North of the

Interesting. Two subspecies of Common Poorwill occur in California. The one that breeds in the Bay Area is nominate californicus. But yours looks more like nuttalli which breeds in the Great Basin.

Yesterday's highlight (in addition to what I posted earlier) at Fort Mason was a COMMON POORWILL that was trying to get some sleep on the ground in the garden. It was flushed several times (due to

A great day for migrants at Fort Mason yesterday. A LARK SPARROW was on the west side of the garden, the young male ORCHARD ORIOLE was hanging out with a newly arrived HOODED ORIOLE, and a PALM

Good Morning SF Birders, I am heading to Tahoe for a few days and wanted to reach out to the group before leaving to see if anyone has been birding there recently. If anyone can recommend birding

Hi there, Had a few decent fall/winter birds — Varied Thrush, Flicker, Lincoln’s Sparrow, and at least 2 adult plumage male Common Yellowthroats — at Mallard Lake this afternoon. Mostly along

All night easterlies gave some of us hope of good bird movement today, but results were less exciting than we wished for. Sightings of interest included: Greater White-fronted Goose - 1, and 5 over
