Hi, all! After patient searching, most of us got identifiable (if fleeting) looks at the Varied Bunting this morning along the road that parallels the Yturrias Tract on its eastern border. The bird (maybe more than one) was singing well all along the trail IN the tract, right up to the "left turn" that Tim Brush described (only about a ten minute walk from the parking lot). Trip report with photos and recordings (Joyce got a photo of the bunting that I'll add later, but a recording is in there) are here: _http://miriameaglemon.com/Big%20Year%202012/July/July%2022%20-%20Yturrias%2 0Tract.html_ (http://miriameaglemon.com/Big%20Year%202012/July/July%2022%20-%20Yturrias%20Tract.html) ...or go to the main page and follow the Big Year 2012 links.
