[Birdnet] Purple Martins-Steam Mill Canyon, Cache Co., 7/19/09

[Craig Fosdick]

Today I hiked the Steam Mill Canyon trail (as well as an unofficial trail on
the next ridge south) and found 7 PURPLE MARTINS, perhaps in the same
location they were reported (by somebody else whose name escapes me) last
year?  Two males, five females, with one male and one female visiting a
cavity.  At one point two females were perched on a branch in front of the
cavity.  Email off list if you would like directions.

Also a couple of OLIVE-SIDED FLYCATCHERS, and families of recently fledged
Downy Woodpeckers and Common Ravens.

Checklist below.  Good birding, Craig.
