There was a report of SANDHILL CRANES Monday over the Big Creek
Fish Hatchery. I finally had a chance to get out to Brownsmead
today to have a look for myself.
I ran into a Albert, who lives out on the end of Rudat Rd. He said
he saw a flock of 30-40 this morning and about a dozen a couple days
ago. He says they are easiest to see early in the morning.
I got lucky and saw four at around 11:00. They flew right over the road
I was parked on at Bug Hole. I also saw a BLACK PHOEBE at Bug Hole.

There were 100's of VIOLET-GREEN SWALLOWS in the area. WESTERN
MEADOWLARKS have returned for the winter. A Columbarius-type MERLIN
was near the fire station.
