~ submitted by Merrill Webb Directions: In Diamond Fork Canyon (Billie's Mountain quad map) about two miles up from the [Diamond] campground [about 8 miles from the mount of the canyon] the forest service has recently constructed a new group picnic site just across the stream at a location known as "Monk's Hollow". [see the picture below] Description/ Birding: A walking trail heads east from this picnic site [see above picture], and after a steep climb goes south through a broad meadow surrounded by oak, maple and scattered junipers.
Birds: Along the stream you can find Gray Catbirds, Fox Sparrows
and Yellow-breasted Chats. Up in the meadows along the forest edge you can find
Black-throated Gray Warblers, Spotted Towhee, and Vesper Sparrows. |
