Dennis Arendt reports:
The Eugene Wednesday birders went to Bloomberg Park – an undeveloped
park north of LCC at the end of Bloomberg Road. It was cold and there
was snow on the ground. The birds seemed to want to sleep late this
morning. Areas of dense blackberries, which usually produced gobs of
sparrows, were rather quiet today. We did have good looks at Wrentits
and the usual sparrows. Both Goldfinches were near the house with many
feeders, though mostly empty today, about 100 yards from the beginning
of Bloomberg Road. We also went to the LCC campus to look into the
brushy habitat near Eastway Drive. Our entire list for the morning is
below.
