Cobirders : The Wood Thrush was still around HQ willows this morning and the first year male American Redstart was relocated at Rose as well. Numbers of waterfowl , swallows and shorebirds were well down from the weekend. A Clark's Grebe and an adult Black-crowned Night Heron were at Upper Twin Pond and flocks of 50 + Brewer's Sparrows were moving north through the rabbit brush. I also heard my first Cassin's Sparrow . Next Saturday May 8 is Chico Open Day , see their web site _www.chicobasinranch.com_ (http://www.chicobasinranch.com) for full description of events. The Ranch is open also to individual birders on this day , registration and fee payable at the HQ kiosk as normal. Access to HQ however will be via a signposted detour via Holmes/ banding station. Birder's are welcome to partake in the lunch of ranch raised grass-fed hamburger at the banding station at $ 8 per person. Just let Caroline at _carol...@chicobasinranch.com_ (mailto:carol...@chicobasinranch.com) know by Friday that you will be joining them for lunch. John Drummond Monument
