Pennock Pass & Gregory Canyon

June 29, 2007


Bryan, Gary and I went owling most of the night. We relocated 3 Flammulated Owls on Pennock Pass. Common Poorwills were found early yesterday evening about 0.5 miles up Prairie Stove Road (from highway 14). We also found several this morning up Flagstaff Road (north and west of Gregory Canyon).

We were searching for reported Flammulated Owls below the road up Flagstaff Mountain. If they were there, they were super quiet this morning.

Gary, Bryan, and I found the Scarlet Tanager this morning in Gregory Canyon. It was chasing a male Western Tanager (or at least following it). The tanagers came from south of the trail and we left them in the trees just northwest of the second bridge.
