Message: I spent memorial day weekend camping at Topaz Mountain. I was able 
to add five new birds to my life list: Western Tanager, Grasshopper Sparrow, 
White Wing Dove, Mockingbird, and Scott's Oriole.
The Scott's Oriole was the most amazing, but the song of the Grasshopper 
Sparrow was a real treat as well. There were three Oriole males visible at 
the same time, accompanied by their mates. I have been on the prowl for a 
Tanager for awhile now, and have glimpsed their yellow bellies form below, 
but have never been able to see the red on the male. This weekend I got just 
a quick glimpse of his bright red head, but was finally able to see it! We 
were in a small cove that was alive with bird activity.
