Even though Willow and Pintail Lakes are dry, I found plenty of birds to keep 
me busy this morning at Santa Ana NWR.  It was a great day to study empids with 
16 least Flycatchers, six Yellow Bellieds and five Alders.  Warblers included a 
Yellow-throated, two Yellows, five Black-and-whites and a Yellow-breasted Chat. 
 Photos are on my newly resurrected blog.
