Hey gang,
Glad to see that Henry and Ellis made their blog debut. I'm pretty confident too, that we can get a Laysan Albatross of our own (noting Cameron Rutt's Laysan on the list) this year with a successful attempt at 1 or 2 pelagic trips (Channel Islands and/or Monterey Canyon).
I had a fairly quiet, but good weeks of birds. Micah and I continue our search for the Spotted Owl, but have so far been unsuccessful. Confident though, that we will see one soon. We are definitely putting in our time with the owls thus far this year. It's been really fun.
We also had an unsuccessful bid at a Grace's Warbler today. I will continue to check for this bird, because it would be a great one for us to have on our list. What did turn up was a RUBY CROWNED KINGLET however, which is a new one for us this year.
Also reporting a single PACIFIC LOON from a few days ago that I saw at the aptly named "Loon Point" in Summerland, CA.
Housekeeping notes: From here on out, I am going to include Micah Schloss on the official bird list when I see a bird with him because he is my birding partner in SB. He will be referred to as 'MS' henceforth in the "seen by" column, if/when we see a bird together.
Also, I noticed that nobody had reported a Red-Bellied Woodpecker yet. Pete, Ben ? Is it a no show year for that species this winter? Wazzzup?
