like a western kingbird but smaller with a longer bill. There was no streaking on the throat and the yellow seemed to extend to the underside of the wings. They had rattle-like note sounding like that of some insect. The dove several times at the Grackles that were flying in the brush. We also we saw a gratecatch with black cap (♂) but brown back and tail. The note was most like the Western Gratecatch. We found the nest built in a fork in the brush. The nest was building and was typical gratecatch style. The outside was covered with lichen and the cavity slightly roofed over by the edge. The fields seemed to resent the presence of the Grackles. Several Pelicans were seen and they seem much different from the early Brown. They have a different flying shape and a shorter bill as well as whitish above on the wings. English Sparrows are built about the town and Roybury? swallows all also common.
