Hi,

I was at Jim's around 2pm, but could only stay a few minutes and didn't see
the Clay-colored, but I did see 1 imm. White-crowned. Just before that I
popped into the Port Williams sewage plant, and there was a F.Barrow's
Goldeneye - rather dark head, but a very bright extensively yellow bill, an=
d
typical head shape. On arriving home there was an imm. N.Shrike sitting in
one of our trees, and posing for photos - also quite vocal, giving squawkin=
g
cries.

Richard
