Following a very productive outing for our CBC, I returned today for an
abbreviated stroll through Calumet County Park late this morning.  Not an
impressive list of birds, but there were impressive numbers of a few birds
which I wouldn't have expected to still be around.  Started off with half a
dozen Northern Flickers, a flock of ten American Robins, along with a Brown
Creeper, a Red-bellied Woodpecker, and a White-breasted Nuthatch all feeding
from what I think were three Hackberry trees along the Lake Winnebago
shoreline.  There were more of the same kind of tree on top of the cliff
where several dozen more robins were feeding.  It made for a very enjoyable
spectacle I watched for half an hour or so--hoping something more unusual
might show up.  Otherwise a pleasant walk with more of the usual winter
birds.  Complete list below.
