This is the Santa Barbara Audubon Society's rare bird report being recorded
on Friday, October 6 at noon. If you have a rare bird sighting to report,
call Karen Bridgers at 964-1316. For those of you who are getting the
transcript on the Internet, the rare bird alert number for Santa Barbara is
(805) 964-8240.
The ZONE-TAILED HAWK has returned for its 14th winter and was seen yesterday
morning at the top of North Fairview Avenue in Goleta.
In Waller Park in Santa Maria, a GRACE'S WARBLER was still present yesterday
about noon, near Area 3.
At the Bird Refuge in Santa Barbara, a TROPICAL KINGBIRD was present on
Wednesday, perched in a tree atop the last island. A PECTORAL SANDPIPER was
along the eastern portion of the Mission Creek Outfall at East Beach, also
on Wednesday, and up to 75 BLACK SKIMMERS were on the beach.
At the Goleta Sewage Ponds, a BLACKPOLL WARBLER was still present on
Wednesday, near the east end of the row of small sludge ponds.
On Tuesday, there was a SURFBIRD on the rocks at Campus Point on the UCSB
campus.
In the wetland area at Los Carneros Road and Mesa Road, near UCSB, a RUFF
and a TROPICAL KINGBIRD were present on Monday.
Both the CACKLING GOOSE and the ROSS'S GOOSE remain in the front pond at
Waller Park in Santa Maria.
On Tuesday, across from the entrance to the Guadalupe Sewage plant, there
was one YELLOW-HEADED BLACKBIRD and one TRICOLORED BLACKBIRD.
That is all the bird news for now, but, again, if you have a rare sighting
to report, call Karen Bridgers at 964-1316. Good birding in Santa Barbara
County.
