Hi Everyone, One of my maintenance crew members (Steve Snow) has taken a picture of a Fox Sparrow at The Honors golf course both yesterday and today. Today it had it's feathers fluffed up because of the cold temperatures. In fact many other birds we saw today also were fluffed up when sitting. He also got a picture of a Goldfinch eating berries off Privet (and I have been trying to get rid of Privet). Included is a list of birds seen at the course this week by me and/or others.
