This is a summary of reports from the Northern California
BirdBox, sponsored by the Golden Gate Audubon Society, compiled
12 December 2006 at 06:10 a.m.
Highlights: PALM WARBLER, BLACK-AND-WHITE WARBLER, TENNESSEE WARBLER,
NASHVILLE WARBLER, WHITE-THROATED SPARROW.
Alameda Co.
-----------
On Dec 11, the PALM WARBLER continues at Fairyland at Lake Merritt.
Directions are: enter Lake Merritt Park at the Fairyland car entrance,
near Harrison and Grand Ave. Drive (or walk) past the kiosk, and
continue a few hundred feet to the Garden Center building on your left.
Walk down the wide, straight asphalt path across the street from the
Garden Center, down to a tall, columned formal "gazebo"
From that point look past a large oak, through the nearest
section of chain-link fence into Fairyland. There's an unkempt grassy
slope, where the warbler fed on the ground, sometimes flying up to the
fence, sometimes in the company of crowned sparrows.
(John Luther, George Griffeth)
San Francisco Co.
-----------------
On Dec 11, the BLACK-AND-WHITE WARBLER, NASHVILLE WARBLER and
WHITE-THROATED SPARROW continues at Ferry Park by the Embarcadero Plaza.
There was also a TENNESSEE WARBLER seen in the park. This could have
been the drab plumaged bird with the pale supercilium that Jack Hayden
saw on Dec 7, 2006. All three warblers were low and easy to see in the
bushes across from the FedEX Kinkos store. The WHITE-THROATED SPARROW
was on the grass by the fence along Washington Street. (Denise Wight)
