Partly cloudy, windy, temps in mid-50's F
 
Thank you to Tony Lance and Ed Schneider for noting the presence of  
Red-Breasted Nuthatches at Beaman Park.  Immediately upon getting out of my  
car 
yesterday morning, I saw four of them feeding in the pine trees at the lower  
parking lot off of Little Marrowbone Rd.  This was a life bird for me, and  
I got some great looks!
 
The windy conditions made for tough birding (at least for my novice  
skills).  There wasn't much activity along the creek, but at the Nature  Center 
feeder I saw American Goldfinch (6), Carolina Chickadee (4), Tufted  Titmouse 
(5), and a single female Purple Finch.
 
Heading up the hillside trail to the upper parking lot, I saw Yellow-Rumped 
 Warbler (3), Golden-Crowned Kinglet (2), Downy Woodpecker (2), Red-Bellied 
 Woodpecker (1), and got some good looks at two different Brown Creepers.
