Richard Stevens:
Gary Weston and I listened for migrating birds at Banner Lakes Wildlife Area this morning about 2 hours before sunrise. One of the birds we recorded was an Upland Sandpiper.
After it was legal to walk into the Wildlife Area, we walked down to pond 11 and back, then east to pond 13 and west to pond 12.
The Long-eared Owl was never found, but we did see many birds that probably nested at the Wildlife Area. Young birds included Robins, a Spotted Towhee, American Coots, a Sora, Song Sparrows, and Pied-billed Grebes.
A Nashville Warbler was found under the thick evergreens west of pond 7. A Townsend's Warbler was found high in the cottonwoods northwest of pond 12.
