[ << | >> | ^^ ] Subject: Orchard Oriole continues From: DSUDDJIAN(AT)aol.com Date: 25 Jan 2002 2:14am ----INCLUDING text/plain MIME SECTION---- Hi All, Just passing on word that I received that the male Orchard Oriole was seen again today in the same area as previosly at Natural Bridges SB. BTW, it is only the 2nd winter record for Santa Cruz County. We have fall records and late March-April records, but one on January 3, 1995, was the only other one from winter. I've always found that odd, since Monterey County has a number of winter records.

[ << | >> | ^^ ] Subject: Orchard Oriole, Tufted Duck, others From: SCRE(AT)aol.com Date: 25 Jan 2002 2:27am ----INCLUDING text/plain MIME SECTION---- Today at Natural Bridges Matt Brady and I had the male ORCHARD ORIOLE at marker 3 in the willows and blackberrys. As for the age of this bird my inital thoughts was a second year bird. When I got home I took a look in Pyle and if I'm reading it right it is an After Hatch Year bird transition out of its first year plumage to adult plumage. I think I explained that right. Also at Natural Birdges was a couple overhead PINE SISKINS and a BROWN CREEPER in the Eucs. A MURRE fly by offshore. On the rocks there were several BLACK TURNSTONES and 3 SURFBIRDS, 2 BLACK OYSTERCATCHERS, WHIMBREL, and the usual WESTERN, GLAUCOUS-WINGED and their various hybrids. At Westlake Pond we had the TUFTED DUCK, one of the GREATER WHITE-FRONTED GEESE, and 2 CANVASBACKS, and a FALCON calling.

[ << | >> | ^^ ] Subject: Orchard Oriole From: Lois Goldfrank <loisg(AT)sccs.santacruz.k12.ca.us> Date: 25 Jan 2002 2:17pm At 1:20 today the Orchard Oriole was again low in the willows and brambles of Marker 3 at NB. Unfortunately I didn't get as good a look as others have because it was chased down the hill almost immediately by a second bird. But I did see it for about 30 seconds. It was interesting, I 've never seen one with that much marking on the mantle before.

Is it unusual for the LAGO to be there in winter? Judy Donaldson ((To unsubscribe MBB, send the command UNSUBSCRIBE MBB <YOUR MBB EMAIL ADDRESS> to <majordomo(AT)darwin.ucsc.edu>.))
