Black-throated Blue Warbler at Botanic Garden
Nina Bai
About 30 min ago I had brief but good looks at a Black-throated Blue Warbler in the maple at the Moon Viewing Garden (37.7678855, -122.4716971) before it flew across the path. Trying to relocate if anyone wants to come try their luck.

Re: Bobolink at Crissy Field Meadow
Adam Winer
FYI, since there were some "nice find, Adam" messages going across - the bird was first found and identified by Brian Fitch; I found and identified it independently a bit later, but he was definitely on the bird first!

Lark and Clay-Colored Sparrows at Fort Mason
There were 10 species of sparrow at Fort Mason this morning, including a LARK and a CLAY-COLORED SPARROW. A LINCOLN'S SPARROW, a WHITE-THROATED SPARROW, and 6 SAVANNAH SPARROWS were the other interesting sparrows. Many GOLDEN-CROWNED SPARROWS were singing.

Re: Crissy this AM- Sept 30 ; CC Sparrow; Brewers Sparrow ,Teal, WT Kite

All, There is some differing opinion on the Brewers sparrow I reported earlier and may be a well marked CC Sparrow. I am looking into it but will retract Brewers for now, Hugh

Bernal Hill
Donna Hayes
This morning I had repeated sightings of an acorn woodpecker on Bernal Hill. It seemed to be circling the hill, as I saw it on both the northern and southern sides. Last seen flying south.
I also saw my FOS Townsend’s warbler. Maybe I’m late to the game. A few people told us about crows mobbing a red-tail hawk at the top of the hill. I didn’t see this myself, although did observe 20+ crows above the hill. One person told us the hawk had a damaged wing. Anyone know anything about this? Later,I did see two adult red tails circling above the north side. Also observed: 3 dark-eyed juncos, several pygmy nuthatches, singing white crown sparrows, 2 black phoebes that seemed to be having a confrontation. Interesting birding! Donna Hayes

Crissy this AM- Sept 30 ; CC Sparrow; Brewers Sparrow ,Teal, WT Kite
H Cotter
There was a Brewer's Sparrow, Clay-colored Sparrow, WT Kite , White Pelican and the continuing teal at Crissy this morning. Clay colored was along the main path at the west end; Brewer's was in the main field in the middle, north ( almost in line with Fort Point Brewery). The Pintail, GW Teal and BW type Teal was also towards the west end but not close enough to look at properly. Hugh

Crissy this evening - Sept 29th ; Teal
H Cotter
I stopped at Crissy late this evening - 6.45 pm.
On the lagoon was a single White Pelican. At the west end was a single Pintail, GW Teal and a potential BW Teal. It was getting dark but this bird appeared to show a pale spot at the base of the bill and the bill seemed to be ok for BW teal. Will need to check it out again tomorrow to confirm. Hugh
