Kingbirds update
By – 11:25 am
The two Thick billed Kingbirds, often traveling together and calling quite a bit, did a massive circuit starting at the community gardens, then going south to Monument and Hollister, then going east down Monument and made it almost as far as the spot where there was the Thick Billed Kingbird last year at the beginning of December that then disappeared. The birds then disappeared from there and then by freak accident I refound them way up back near the community gardens around 11:00 a.m. right at the corner of Sunset and Hollister in the big eucalyptus tree there and now they are flycatching up and down the dirt section of Sunset to the west of Hollister. Makes you wonder if one of them is in fact the same bird from last December which instead of dying, which is sort what we thought happened, just started moving all over the place in the valley and we couldn’t find it again?Also mid/late morning today, a Tropical Kingbird continues along Dairy Mart Road near the main Dairy Mart parking lot.Paul Lehman, San DiegoSent from the all new AOL app for Android
