Birders,
Eleven members of NTOS gathered in the cool morning today to cover some of the 
324 acre Hill Track, owned by Friends of Warner Park. We were led by Ed 
Gleaves, Warner Park volunteer. The previous owner never allowed logging and 
the hills and valleys have magnificent old trees and beautiful fields.  There 
are varied stands of  oaks and hickories plus lesser numbers of poplars, 
maples, walnut, persimmon sassafras, mulberry, and others.  We only birded a 
portion of the property.  At the barn area, birds were plentiful.
Seen were:

Canada Goose  2
Wild Turkey   30
Black Vulture   2
Turkey Vulture  1
Sharp-shinned Hawk  1
Red-bellied Woodpecker  2
Downy Woodpecker  1
Northern Flicker   1
Pileated Woodpecker  2
Blue Jay  7
American Crow  25
Carolina Wren  4
Eastern Bluebird  32
American Robin  22
Northern Mockingbird  2
European Starling  30
Cedar Waxwing  30
Field Sparrow  1
Common Grackle  250
House Finch  1
American Goldfinch  4
Total - 22 Species
