Had a FOS Orange-crowned Warbler at Walden Ponds this morning along with a couple of gorgeous male Myrtle Warblers in cottonwoods.
Also two Marsh Wrens singing.

Even more fun was a presumed male White-breasted Nuthatch delivering food to a presumed female sitting in the mouth of a cavity.

And next door, at Sawhill Ponds: 
Heard and eventually saw a Virginia rail foraging among the dried cattails in a small marshy spot in the interior of the property.

At Walden this morning, there were two male yellow-headed blackbirds in the cattails at the western end of Cottonwood Marsh. And at the western edge of Sawhill Ponds, there was a ruby-crowned kinglet.

I was coming to Sawhill at 6 am when I came across the dead GHO by the cave nest on South Boulder Rd.  Needless-to-say, I never 
got to Sawhill Ponds.
