Last night's rain dropped a gaggle of Ruby-crowned Kinglets into the park
with 5 in one tree and a total of 10 within another 100 feet.  Birds of note:

Cooper's hawk
Female Yellow-bellied Sapsucker
Blue-headed Vireo (seen by Pat Scheid)
House Wren
Blue-gray Gnatcatcher (outside my window right now)
Brown Thrasher
Rufous-sided Towhee
3 Field Sparrows
4 Chipping Sparrows
Swamp Sparrow
10 White-throated Sparrows

Yesterday (4/14) there were 2 Yellow-rumped Warblers and 2 pairs of Purple
Finches in the yard.
