Judy and I went to the top of Madera Canyon to listen for night birds. We scored two lifers: Mexican whip-poor-willWhiskered screech-owl We didn’t see either of them, but we heard them well. It’s good to add to the life list. The last time we got a lifer was November 2015. We’re doing fine on the year count though. If we saw a new year-bird every day for a year, we’d be done now. We’re at 365 for 2016. Evening light
