For local folks, I walked around parts of Elgin this morning searching for Purple Finches etc. in vain, of course, but did have a nice White-breasted Nuthatch on W. 8th just N of Ave. A.. Also had my largest flock of Am. Goldfinches to date this season...45-50. How many species did the TOS gathering gather? ********************************************************************** Brush Freeman 503-551-5150 Cell http://texasnaturenotes.blogspot.com/ Finca Alacranes., Utley,Texas Edit your Freelists account settings for TEXBIRDS at //www.freelists.org/list/texbirds Reposting of traffic from TEXBIRDS is prohibited without seeking permission from the List Owner
