On the way to Maragua we stopped where a large flock (60+) of Budget Sound Sparrows were singing. They were feeding on the ground, also on the branches of the willows. A Redtail and a Turkey Buzzard were soaring very near together. At St. Mary's College we walked along a trail on the south side of the lake where we saw twenty or more species. Near the College there were Bluebirds and one Nuttall Sparrow was singing as if nesting there. We went on to the Haverland Ranch where we ate lunch. A Slender-billed Wiltwatch came into the tall tree near us and we watched it as it explored a large branch, going on the under side, then the upper side and around the branch not tracing the tail. A Titmouse was giving all its calls. Full list: Turkey Buzzard, Redtail, Sh. Sh. Hawks, Quail (heard), Morning Dove (heard), Anna H.
