Hi birders, we saw the Lawrence’s Goldfinch (a pair) this afternoon, close to 5 pm, on the Spring Ridge Trail at Windy Hill OSPby the spring that trickles in to an old bathtub, below the cypress grove. The sign at the spring reads « non potable » as others have noted (great for dogs, I expect). We had about 45 minutes to hang out and study these while Lesser Goldfinch that came in several times. Which was nice , because then the difference in female attire was clear.
A House Wren sang from the uphill side of the Cypress grove. Lots of quail and a couple of Lazuli Bunting.
