Lost Canyon is just getting started with the owner’s house built and trails created. Cabins will come
eventually. We didn’t see as many birds here, but it was middle of day and we hiked to top of the little mountain with several vistas enroute which I will show in a later post. I think birding will be better at the bottom of the hill and around the farms or down the dirt road.

The Director of Lost Canyon is Richard Leonardi, email him at info@lost-canyon.org or check out their website at http://lost-canyon.org/

The one that migrates north has a yellow head, only the resident has red-brown.

My computer has no more space for me to download more photos from my camera. So I have a problem to solve before I post more. 🙂

Notice that I included two photos of the Yellow Warbler and two of the Wilson’s Warbler. You will with this see how different the same species can look at first glance. Age, gender and other factors can influence a “different look” for birds of the same species.
