We left all before making it all the way down to his car. I made a turkey pastami, spinach, havarti cheese with greg poppy mustard sandwich. John & I shared lunch so also had turkey with swiss cheese in pita bread. Carrot sticks, and grapefruit juice too. After lunch we headed to the SE corner which a high sandy plateau of original juniper. With alligator poplar bark looks like alligator skin. This area was very quiet, hardly any sounds unless John "pished" or did a pygmy owl call. Then we would attract numerous (20-30) pygmy nuthatches, a few white-breasted (2-3) and numerous juncos (50). Also picked up a williamson's sparrow in a tall dry fir it was 10' below the top of the main trunk (sp. acet.).
