50+ Band-tailed Pigeon This flock has been growing steadily, likely because of the copious amounts of acorns
5 Dark-eyed Junko 5 Acorn Woodpecker 2 Western Scrub Jay 24 Ruddy Duck This probably a conservative number
4 Pied-billed Grebe 1 American Kestrel 2 Common Loon These two have been hanging around the dam for a month or so
2 Say’s Phoebe 50 American Coot adults, 7 juvenile This is also likely a conservative number

2 American Crow 1 Great Blue Heron 3 Red-tailed Hawk 1 Eared Grebe 4 Ring-necked Duck 2 Hooded Merganser 1 Hermit Thrush
