I'm visiting in El Paso and went to the Franklin Mtns State Park bird blind yesterday (Monday about noon). In addition to the "usual suspects" we were pleased to get good views of a Golden Crowned Sparrow, which is not to be expected, I don't believe. The usual suspects were: 50 White Wing Doves, 4 Scaled Quail, 1 Gambel's Quail, 35 House Finches, 10 Black-throated Sparrows, 1 Black-chinned Hummer, 25 Mourning Doves, 2 Canyon Towhees, 5 Great Tailed Grackles, 1 Cactis Wren, and 1 Ladder-backed Woodpecker.
