Both species were present this morning (9:15-10:15) in and around the picnic area adjacent to the golf course (west side of parking field 2). The Clay-colored was skulky, but provided adequate views. The Dickcissel, once it appeared, was very cooperative, allowing prolonged views as it fed in the panic grass between the picnic area and parking lot.
P.S. On arrival I was told by Joe V and Bob G that they'd seen a Lark Sparrow in the vicinity. Unfortunately I didn't have time to search for it.
