Hi Dave!
As you come into the Refuge area, Ruth left at the Elmer Thomas Lake Dam
sign. You can find Rock Wren, Rufous-crowned Sparrow and possibly BCVI.
The Sunset area on the west end of the Refuge is where the ZTHA’s are
found, usually from the upper parking lot. We had 5 BCVI”s in the canyon
to the North of where the creek comes out of Charon’s Gardens.
CCSP’s are not anywhere specific but are found all over the refuge.
Hope this helps,
Lou
