There are never a ton of species here, but because of the side slope and scrub oak you are quite near the breeding birds ... plus it's a beautiful spot. Good chance to spend some time looking at markings and behavior (like Rock Wrens doing deep knee bends).
Every year the buntings, grosbeaks, wrens join a Yellow-Breasted Chat, Swifts, and Lark Sparrows in the oak and the cliffs. Wildflowers aren't spectacular this year but they are in full bloom now.
