Morning all,
A brief walk around the yard this morning yielded at least 3 species we missed
n our sector of the Bowie CBC yesterday. I have at least 8 Pine Siskins at the
histle feeders, a group of Brown-headed Cowbirds feeding on the ground below
he sunflower feeders and a small group of Chipping Sparrows feeding with many
uncos in the yard.
Our sector of the Bowie CBC (not sure what number sector, but it was around Cash
ake at Patuxent Research Center) with Mark and Janet Wimer, Alli Sussman,
yself and several others had some nice finds. We had about 2 dozen Ring-necked
ucks, 3 Ruddy Ducks, 1 Wilson's Snipe, many Swamp, Song and White-throated
parrows, 2-3 Red-breasted Nuthatches, perhaps half a dozen Golden-crowned
inglets (no RC's though), and a good mix of the regular species.
And just now, I looked outside at one of the feeders and there was a Hairy
oodpecker there (only maybe the 3rd occurance here)!
