DECEMBER 2007The composite list has finished out 2007 at 289 species, the same as last year. This compares well to the recent average of 284 species.
A possible record of a RED-NAPED SAPSUCKER was confirmed with photographs (an adult female), although the actual dates of the bird's visit to a yard off Del Puerto Road near the Stanislaus County line is uncertain. For now, I've put the first date down as 9 Nov, although it was seen earlier. This brings the November list to 287 species.
Adding species in December is difficult, even with all those eyeballs out there on the four local Christmas Bird Counts. We wound up with two more 5's for the year. A ROUGH-LEGGED HAWK was found on private land near Calaveras Reservoir on 16 Dec, and has been occasionally found since with persistent scoping from Marsh Road. This was our one CBC bird. Then, finishing out the year was a juvenile PACIFIC LOON on the Los Capitancillos percolation ponds near Almaden Lake on 29 Dec.
