Subject: [AZNMbirds] Arthur Pack Regional Park Tuesday AM
This morning, 7:30-9:15.
9th pond Eared Grebe, First of the fall for me. 77 Ruddy Ducks, reflecting a rapid increase over the last 10 days.
7th pond : Western Meadowlark, 2 Dickcissel, continuing Clay-colored Sparrow (third day. In the last four)
Trailhead parking lot: Woodhouses Scrub Jay! New to the park. No photo but viewed by three people. Flyover heading west at about 50 feet high. White-throat visible, mostly gray due to inferior position but a little blue on the flapping wings.
Also viewed by Judy Wright and Lieve Keeney.
A late Western Wood Pewee.
White-crowned Sparrows increasing but not as many as some other years.

Shorebird and duck diversity is low at the moment.
