Well, there were some good birds, and it is Friday...

It was actually fairly quiet. Chilly and overcast. We started at the ridge where we had to sort through dozens of Yellow-rumped Warblers and Goldfinches. We eventually came up with a number of Blue-Gray Gnatcatchers, along with a couple of Downy Woodpeckers, one Yellow-shafted Flicker, and a whole lot of resident stuff. 

We didn't go to the equitation field. Wish we had. Bumping into Wallace Kornack at the Maintenance Yard, we heard about wht they'd seen down there, but I will let him post his list. Suffice to say he had stuff we did not get. 

At the Maintenance Yard parking lot, we found a Black-throated Green Warbler. A Ruby-crowned Kinglet was singing its heart out. In the Maintenance Yard itself, two Yellow Warblers, one Baltimore Oriole, one Black-and-White Warbler.
