Good weather today, overall. Did not bird the orchard early, as we prefer, because gas powered equipment being used there by the WCC crew overwhelmed the senses of both birds and birders. The highlight of the day came early with the observation of two Black-necked Stilts in the flooded fields south of the twin barns. There was an abundance of Western Tanagers and some had a brief look at a female Bullock's Oriole. A complete list follows:
