I made a run up to Rhinelander today to add Bohemian waxwing and northern
hawk-owl to my year list.  The hawk-owl just graced me with a fly by as I
drove down Highway 17 around 7:30 a.m.  John Rasmussen and I found a flock
of about 50 Bohemians with a dozen cedar waxwings in Rhinelander in
someone's yard fruit tree (sorry, can't tell you what street we were on, I'm
a stranger there myself).

Two weeks ago I birded the feeders in Alvin and the forest roads off of
Highway 55 in the Nicolet National Forest.  I had gray jays, pine and
evening grosbeaks, a black-backed woodpecker, and other more common birds.

Happy New Year!

I'm planning a trip to Rhinelander tomorrow and wonder if the hawk-owl has
been seen lately. Also any chances at seeing any of the following within a
half-hour drive of Rhinelander would be appreciated.
Black-backed Woodpecker, Boreal Chickadee, Pine Grosbeak, Red Crossbill,
Snowy Owl.
Thanks,
