Made a short trip into Woolsey Canyon area to take photographs. The following observations deserve notation:
Accipiter cooperi - one circling over canyon, flying eastward.
Buteo borealis - one pair at NW corner,
one pair at SE corner of Woolsey Tract; [illegible] a fifth and apparently single bird soaring over SW corner.
Calypso anna - male hummingbird present along west south edge near Bachman tongue, where one, and almost certainly the same individual, was present all last winter, spring, & summer. The identical post occupied then was occupied today.
