One highlight to Day #2 of our Golden Gate Audubon trip into the mountains of southern Oregon was a chance to watch two Red-breasted Nuthatches bringing food to their nestlings. This was on the north side of Mt. Ashland, below Bull Gap.
Below: an exit, with fecal sac.
Another speedy return.
At the Ashland Dog Park a half hour of assiduous effort finally got one of our group his lifer view of a Yellow-breasted Chat. Thirty feet up in a cottonwood, singing.
And we had great views of a male Calliope Hummer, on Tolman Creek Road. Pictures later. Klamath tomorrow.
