Hi folks.
Tuesday 12/22/09 report.
There was a little over an inch of new snow on the ground and snow was still
lightly falling during my hike this morning. The temperature was 23 degrees
and there was a slight breeze. The following birds were heard this morning:
Mourning Dove
Red-bellied Woodpecker
Downy Woodpecker
Hairy Woodpecker
Pileated Woodpecker
Blue Jay
American Crow
Black-capped Chickadee
Tufted Titmouse
White-breasted Nuthatch
Eastern Bluebird
Northern Cardinal
Purple Finch
American Goldfinch
There was even less singing this morning than yesterday, with the only song
being the slow song of the White-breasted Nuthatch. A short "Wik-a wik-a
wik-a" of the Red-bellied Woodpecker was also heard as I returned to the yard.
At least two Eastern Bluebirds were heard calling as they flew overhead through
the falling snow. The White-throated Sparrow with the drooping right wing is
still being seen at the feeders.
