Tony, the Dusky-capped flycatcher was seen Monday at Gilman Pk. so should still be around.
Maybe we should hit Gilman Park and Carbon Canyon and or Craig Regional on Friday BIRDAPALOOZA'S.

Dave,
That's great and sounds like a plan. Is it feasible to hit all of those spots on Friday? How about Gilman Park to start? Being selfish here, since that is quite close to where I'll be staying and that would be a lifer for me. I presume the Pine Warbler has moved on.

1. Thurs-RPV area for anyone interested. Maybe meet at lower Trump public parking at 7:30am, check out the trails and coast, then north a little to the point etc, then maybe south coast botanic gardens or other area parks.
That should work for me. If nothing else I could meet at South Coast. There is also Madrona Marsh, in Torrance,which is not too far from South Coast. You can check on ebird. It is a pretty small area.
Re: shirts. I could work on this. Of course it would be too late for this year.

Tahoe's first Hooded Oriole showed up with yesterday's snowstorm. Sadly, she's got a wonky right eye, which may explain why she's so off course. But she's found a fine yard to settle in with a hummingbird feeder, jelly, and orange halves on offer, so maybe she can recuperate a bit before the next leg of whatever goofball journey she's on (surely back down to lower elevations and suburban palm trees).

Was just kidding about the shirts, just gave me a reason to post that pic ;). That would be cool to plan for next year though if someone has a connection.

Tony, yes, apparently I was the lucky one to be the LAST person to see the Pine Warbler.

I would seriously love the shirts! Not sure if the graphic posted is fair game. The phone that BN posted above is.
I would pay, but sadly have zero time too coordinate.
Also, we can do the RPV area on the first day and also do Marona Marsh (think we've done it in the past). If anyone needs a phone number of coordination - post the need here and we'll get connected off site.

Yeah, that graphic is from the net and I just messed around with AutoCAD to add the wording. We would have to come up with another image or draw one up. Looks like Beth and I have a Birthday to attend on Saturday so we will not be able to make it :(.
If there is any birding going on Sunday, please let us know, we can cruise up that day.
Cool pic I saw on the net of a Quetzal.

Dee ee and Tony;
I was looking up Gilman Park on Google maps and noticed Limestone Canyon Regional Park to the south east of Gilman. Is it really a limestone region? I didn't know there was limestone down there. I ask because sometimes the flora and fauna change in karst or limestone areas.
