I was able to get out of work a little early today so I took a drive up to Carlos Avery. Overall the theme of the evening was bugs. The Deer Fly were by far some of the worst I have ever seen. I didn't see many birds, just the usual suspects at this time of year.
Kingbirds,
Sandhill Cranes, Sparrows, and a lot of Bank Swallows.
If you look close at this photo you'll notice that not all of the birds have the distinct dark line across there breast, but some of them do. I'm inclined to think that those without the line are this years birds. (If you think differently, please let me know.)
