Don't forget the other birds - but there are also other birds of note. Kathleen and I saw 2 STELLER'S JAYS less than a quarter mile above the Dipper spot on Sunday (5 Sept 99). These are significant because we have very few sightings on south slope of Santa Ynez range. In addition, they have bred at lower than expected elevations along the Santa Ynez River at Gibraltar Reservoir, and several summered this year in the river bottom willow-cottonwood forest near the spruce where Cold Springs Trail crosses the river.
