Sialia currocoides (Mountain Bluebird)
Zonotrichia leucophrys (White-crowned Sparrow)
Carpodacus mexicanus (House Finch)

Thank you. Can you provide a reference for this?
The 43 km/h are one stopped by the police with radar, the bird flew through a speed 30 zone. This went through the daily newspapers, I have a copy of the police photo with the speed, not just the press release.
The 70 km/h is an estimate based on the speed of cars driving parallel to each other.
can you please share the police photo with the speed with me?
