hiked up Anvil Springs Canyon this evening
and made it back alive. Highlights were a WHITE-HEADED WOODPECKER (in
tree hole), 8+ LEWIS'S WOODPECKERS, and a kamikaze COMMON POORWILL that
did not appreciate my Northern Pygmy-Owl imitations. It dive-bombed me
twice and came within an inch of my face! Needless to say, I hustled down
the canyon, losing my cellphone along the way. So I'll be back up there
tomorrow morning looking for it.

Here is the complete list:

California Quail
