Nice find Daniel! The city is suddenly popping with migrants. Hope this isn’t too far off-topic. That guy might have been looking for a place to release a Common Quail, as opposed to one of our

Hey Folks and Adam, sorry I was a bit imprecise. Males can have white edging (which wears off, like with fresh Starlings) but it's the color. In males the feathers come in black and in stark contrast

Hey all, Like with the Brown Thrasher I had the TENNESSEE WARBLER just long enough to feel frustrated (I should celebrate a McLaren lifer!). It was in the biggest Willows at the east end of the upper

Two and perhaps 3 red-necked at Crissy this morning.

After an aborted trip to the city yesterday when I realized in Oakland that my binoculars were still on the table back home, Rosita and I drove in the late morning to the Presidio to look for the
