Drove to Whole Foods today instead of walking (too many groceries). On the way
I swung by Lake Park. No new FOY species, but some nice birding nonetheless.
A few highlights:
* Checked North Point for shorebirds. Nothing yet. The beach is actually pretty
sterile looking. Needs some stinkin algae to attract insects. :-)
* My first vocalizing Eastern Phoebe of the year, by one of the ravines. I've
seen a fair number of them this year, but this is the first I've heard. Love
that sound!
* Yellow-bellied Sapsuckers in a ravine, including one vocal bird.
* Singing Ruby-crowned Kinglet.
* Singing Winter Wren.
* Singing Dark-eyed Junco.
* Several Northern Flickers.
* First Red-breasted Nuthatch I've seen in a while.
