No Black-headed Grosbeak or Bullock's Oriole yet.  But during our Orchard Heights Park bird survey this morning we saw three Western Tanagers in an oak tree.  One was a very bright male.

Nice! We had a brief visit from a male Bullock's Oriole this morning, about a week ahead of the average arrival date for the Corvallis-Albany area.
 
Also, on Sunday I heard my first "Pacific-slope" (Western) Flycatcher of the year, while checking for Vesper Sparrows along the Cardwell Hill powerline corridor, out by Wren.
