NAAS Field Trip along Schultz Creek

On Saturday May 3rd I joined 7 other birders on a NAAS trip led by Jodi along Schultz Pass Roas as far as the tank. After stopping to see a couple of Lewis's Woodpeckers at the junction with Elden Lookout Road, the morning began slowly with few birds singing but picked up as the morning wore on and we had good views of both Grace's and Red-faced Warblers. Everyone also had their first Western Tanagers of the year. The highlight for me was a pair of Williamson's Sapsuckers visiting their nest hole in an aspen close to the road.
