A morning walk in Meadow Park (San Luis Obispo) revealed a large "push" of migrants active in the park. After hearing a few Western tanagers each morning over the last week, they were by far the most numerous birds in the park this morning. My estimate was 50+...but it was difficult to get an accurate count as the flew from tree to tree (and would effectively disappear into the dense bottlebrush trees). There was a noticeable increase in other migrants including Black headed grosbeaks, Bullocks and Northern orioles, Yellow-rumped, yellow, Wilson's and Orange crowned warblers and singular (that I saw) Lazuli bunting and Cassin's vireo. The birds were concentrated in the area between the King St. pedestrian bridge and the eastern culvert/stream crossing.
