Hi, all! Tried for the Red-naped Sapsucker, which was a no-show while I was there (and several other people were looking as well), but a pretty Vermilion Flycatcher was hanging out in the same area, as well as a Gray Hawk closer to La Coma Circle and a Beardless Tyrannulet at the Paixtile Circle. A Malachite was staked out by the Visitor's Center. Report, recordings, and photos are here: _http://miriameaglemon.com/Big%20Year%202012/December/December%208%20-%20Ben tsen%20SP.html_ (http://miriameaglemon.com/Big%20Year%202 012/December/December%208%20-%20Bentsen%20SP.html) Enjoy!
