Checked it out very briefly around lunch time. There were a few red-wing and Brewer's blackbirds and some starlings in the area. Then, a female yellow-headed blackbird landed on the telephone wires! I didnt see the male, but didnt have time to check out the flock of birds that it could have been with.
Interesting if these guys are breeding as the male has been around for a week as Jason mentioned.
