I have decided to enjoy spring with a regular Friday lunchtime 12-1
Patterson Park trip. Last week, in high winds, we managed a dismal 12
species. This week, we managed a respectable 21, with non-boring birds
including 2 calling Pied-billed Grebes, Coots and Ring-necked Ducks (but no
Wigeon or Red-breasted Merganser), lots of Song Sparrows and Juncos all
over, one White-throated and a Fox Sparrow (!) in the white house yard, a
Cooper's Hawk. With an American Kestrel (corner of BaltimorexWolfe) and a
House Sparrow on teh way home, 23 species (admittedly including Muscovy
Ducks) is a pretty good start.
