Howdy,
I went to the Airport Dike this morning to see the great birds reported there -- and I saw most all of them (Common Mergansers, Bufflehead, Sage Sparrow, Chukar, Cinnamon Teal, etc.) I also saw two Sandhill Cranes fry right over my head. They were making a lot of noise (music to my ears) and then headed out towards Eric's place. I also saw a very light Merlin on the south end of the dike near the SW corner.
See you tonight at the UCB meeting!
