Tuesday, August 12, 2014, 7AM – 10AM
Weather: sunny
Location: Rock Bottom Ranch

Specices Identified
Mallard Rock Pigeon Eurasian-collared Dove Mourning Dove Broad-tailed Hummingbird Belted Kingfisher Lewis’ Woodpecker		Northern Flicker Western Wood-peewee Western Scrub Jay Black-billed Magpie American Crow Black-capped Chickadee House Wren		American Robin Gray Catbird Yellow Warbler Song Sparrow Black-headed Grosbeak Red-winged Blackbird (pictured above) Yellow-headed Blackbird

Comments: Many juveniles were observed on the wing and interacting with adults. We were also treated to excellent observations of yellow-headed blackbirds and Lewis’ woodpeckers.  Behaviors are fascinating at this time of year when young birds are gaining skills outside their nests.
