The other day, my Dad and I went for a short "birding drive". We didn't get started until 5pm 
On the advice of Jason, we decided to try Elkview Road from the bottom to the gravel section at top. We saw 30+ species in 2 hours so were very pleased. Lots of Band-tailed Pigeons, Western Tanagers, Brown Creepers, a Red-breasted Sapsucker, a Hairy Woodpecker and noisy youngsters in a nest hole, dusky flycatcher, lots of noisy black-headed grosbeaks, a wilson's warbler, western kingbird, among others. A very enjoyable route with good variety. I am sure there are a lot more at a better time of day!

). Your yard also produced the Western Tanager and Red-breasted Sapsucker.
