Birders:

Ashish, Kent, Bill, and I strolled aroud a campus full of noise and jotted down 17 species. It was sunny and about 78F. The highlights were the Red-masked Parakeets and the Cooper's Hawk that I think had just nabbed something. The low-light was seeing a big tree in the park being cut down.

House Sparrow	Mourning Dove	House Finch
Anna's Hummingbird	Acorn Woodpecker	Crow
Raven	Spotted Towhee	Red-masked Parakeet
Black Phoebe	Starling	White-throated Swift

Jon, do you have anything to add from your lunch walk? If you saw two or more that are not on this list, I vote that starting next Tuesday we walk the entire hour to and fro on your lunch walk.

Summer's here.

I had Anna's, Acorn, Mocker, EUROPEAN STARLING, and a ROCK DOVE. So, two more for the list.
