I often wondered if birds ever investigated those big webs that I see in trees. The Oriole poked and prodded inside one and pulled out a prize. Kind of like a bird version of a pinata.

I came across a White-winged Dove, as well.

I also ran across a pair of Blue-gray Gnatcatchers starting to build a nest.

A full list of what I saw:
American Crow
American Robin
Acorn Woodpecker
Black-headed Grosbeak
Blue-gray Gnatcatcher
Broad-tailed Hummingbird
Bullock's Oriole (FOS)
Dusky Flycatcher
Mountain Chickadee
Mourning Dove
Orange-crowned Warbler
Plumbeous Vireo
Spotted Towhee
Steller's Jay
Turkey Vulture
Warbling Vireo
Western Tanager
White-winged Dove

We also spent 5+ minutes watching what we first thought might be a female Red-winged Blackbird. I've been fooled by them a number of times but this doesn't, to me anyway, look quite right for one. We also didn't see (no flashy males) or hear a single Blackbird out there. Some other things that came to mind were an immature Horned Lark (we saw some on the way in) or some type of waterthrush. I even thought it might be a Song Sparrow but it doesn't seem to really fit any of these. It spent the entire time on the ground right at or very close to the waterline and kept going down into the deep hoofprints in the dried mud. I've got a few pictures attached.

I was not disappointed. There was high bird activity, with birds singing everywhere. The breeding season has begun. I did not see any MacGillivray's Warblers, so it might be a bit early for them. Other than that, many of the summer residents have already arrived:

While we didn't find any vagrants, we did have some highlights in scarce local breeders, including two RED-FACED WARBLERS, one PAINTED WHITESTART carrying nest material, five HEPATIC TANAGERS, and a singing DUSKY FLYCATCHER.

The only migrants we had were single Townsend's and Audubon's Warblers, and the only irruptive species was Pine Siskin, with a handful present.

As is often the case, there is no water in the ephemeral basin. We parked by and walked through the first gate near the southeast corner of the lake. The County is thinning this property with ERI - Ecological Restoration Institute - to presettlement conditions, so it looks like an old timber sale, except for lots of gamble oak gracing the slopes. (Oak nesting cavities abound!) We passed one of three tanks that are being half-fenced, so the open end will be available to elk, the fenced side will be vegetated for leopard frogs. An aspen stand at the high east end of the property is fenced to enhance further regeneration. Over the next year, the County will be developing several miles of hiking trails and a shade kiosk on the hill. We all discussed how this property and the adjoining FS land on Woody Mountain deserves more exploration for birding.

As for wildlife, at first we saw more mammals - 6 or more Pronghorn and several Gunnison's Praire Dogs. We began adding up the birds as we hiked up slope to the east. Everyone was thrilled with some close views of Red Crossbills. Though not mixed conifers, we saw many Red-faced Warblers on this hike.

Surprising us all, we spooked a Mourning Dove off her single egg on the pine needles. We wondered if it had fallen unbroken from a nest but didn't see one in the tree above. Rick recalled hearing about ground-nesting Mourning Doves at lower elevation. Does anyone know more about this behavior?

In all we found around 30 species (Ron, who am I missing here?):
Red-tailed Hawk, Turkey Vulture,
Flicker, Hariy Woodpecker,
Broad-tailed Hummingbird,
Mourning Dove,
a probable Western Wood Pewee (we couldn't confirm),
Common Raven, Steller's Jay,
Violet-green Swallow,
Western Bluebird, American Robin, Hermit Thrush,
Mt. Chickadee, White-breasted and Red-Breasted Nuthatches, House Wren,
Plumbeous Vireo, Red-faced Warbler, Yellow-rumped Warbler,
Brewer's Blackbird, Red-winged Blackbird,
Western and Hepatic Tanagers,
Chipping Sparrow, Vesper Sparrow, Dark-eyed Junco (red backed), Red Crossbill.]]>
