Subject: [sbcobirding] Figueroa Mountain lower west slope - Hammond's Flycatcher and good migrant movemnt
I birded the west slope of Figueroa Mountain this morning. I walk up the road starting at the hairpin turn where Midland School and Sedgwick properties meet and frequently find a good flow of migrants coming over the saddle, today was one of those mornings. I immediately saw birds moving and had multiple Hermit, Townsends and Wilson's warblers with singles of Yellow and Black-throated Gray as well. Western Flycatchers were common and I picked up a Hammond's as well (I get Hammond's here pretty much annually). I walk about a mile up the road and had something to look at all the way up and back.
