I walked over to Angel Cruz Park this morning, hoping to find more activity than on previous visits, which have been later in the day. But nope, not much difference, other than the presence of a

All: I had my FOS Bullock’s Oriole and a couple of Black-throated Gray Warblers at Laughlin Park this morning. Also had a continuing Red-breasted Nuthatch. Otherwise pretty slow. Good birding.

I see that I am remiss in posting to sjbirds this week, so I’ll try to summarize here now. I visited a variety of under-birded parks in north Stockton (most of which were devoid of people) this

The Scaly Breasted Munia has been a regular visitor to my feeder, only one for the first two days and a trio every day since- two adults and a juvenile. This was also a good day for some new arrivals

That’s great, Kasey! I haven’t seen the Brown Creeper or Townsend’s Warbler for several weeks. I had a Pine Siskin day before yesterday, and a FOS Pac Slope Flycatcher on the 1st. I also had a

All Today would have been our monthly walk at Lodi Lake, so I beat the rain and birded a couple hours this morning. The weather and cool, with grey skies, and the bird activity was moderate.
