Hi
The main campground area it was quiet. One contributing factor was at a camp site in middle of prime migrate habitat on the south west side was a large, Boxer/Mastiff with a ferocious sounding bark, convincing enough to have me scurrying back to the car, locking the car doors.
In the pasture just north of the campground there were some interesting bird comparisons. In an area including tall cottonwoods with dead branches were łabout 4-5 Olive-sided Flycatchers. Also there were 1-2 Western-wood Pewees in the area. It was interesting to study the size and flying comparisons for each Contopus species. Actually in the greater area there 4 times as many O-s fly as there were robins. Also had good views of side by side comparisons of Sage and Brown Thrashers
