1 June
6:48 am Overcast ~55°F Route: 580 to 24
to San Pablo Dam Rd to Bear Creek to Happy Valley
Mileage 60811.9
9:51am No fledgling fledglings or nestlins. Some
individuals have been quite vocal but no
"chipping" or "bleeeping". The Orioles, towhees and
robins are all tiny fledgling fledglings. Allens
Hornss I think are nesting. I saw one
well featured bird & the year it was awfully
with another radio I believe was the adult.
Three individuals were in the willow near the
huge Hackberry patch on the W side of the road
250yds from where I park in the grave.
Individual that I watched on 15 June
is not Cally & around the area, to
what I thought was Queen Anne's Lace but
is really Poison Hemlock! Walked down along
the W edge of the Hemlock patch in the Buckhas
heard a "Chip" as a fledgling repeated
with "Bleeeping" from the hemlock. I think the
hemlock provides great cover for fledglings
but I don't believe the sparrows nest there.
