There are black bear paw prints, unmistakable, in the mud on the Hunting 
Quarter Road spur that leads past the pools where the Yellow-crowned Night 
Herons were found earlier. The pools have dried up and the Night Herons are 
gone. The paw prints are on the exposed mud flat. This is at the first parking 
area down from the Hughes Hollow impoundment parking. Visible to any one 
who wants to check it out. Otherwise at the Hughes Hollow impoundments 
pretty much the summer usual. Nesting Baltimore Oriole feeding young on top 
of a small tree off the right angle path past the first impoundment. Also 
Orchard Oriole, the usual Tree Swallows, Kingbird, Green Heron, Redwing 
Blackbirds, Indigo Buntings, goldfinches, Blue-gray gnatcatchers, and heard 
House wren
