Folks,
We drove up to Hillsboro this morning after the rain. Within minutes of
arriving at 11:15 we found the RUSTY BLACKBIRD in the north end of the
parking lot, puttering around with Brewer's and Red-wings, picking up
tidbits. We also met George Neavoll, who had found it an hour earlier.
On the pond right east of the library we spotted a very RUSTY female
EURASIAN WIGEON, the "rufous morph" shown in the National Geographic Guide.
A striking bird.
Nice park!
Good birding, everyone,
Paul Sullivan & Carol Karlen
