As Roy Gerig just reported, I had nice perched up views of the Brewer's Sparrow at Pintail Marsh this morning about 9:30 AM. the bird was just east of the NW corner of the main impoundment, right where a small fence is above a culvert. Other birds observed today include 2 Greater White-fronted Geese 1 female Bullock's Oriole 4 kinds of swallows 1 Cackling Goose(which probably summered) A total of 45 species were seen or heard. Full checklist on e-bird. Jim Kopitzke Salem
