Corvid Antics

Hoping to see new migrants at Red Butte today, but nothing unusual. Birds have paired-up and heard or saw Mallards, Spotted Towhee, California Quail, Western Scrub-jay, Black-capped Chickadees, Magpies and Ruby-crowned Kinglets in close proximity. The grounds contained a number of singing Song Sparrows, but not sure they had found mates. Magpies were busy working on the next near the entrance, but they seemed somewhat annoyed by my presence.
