There were a group of blue jays mobbing a sharp shinned hawk, it almost looked like the blue jays were playing with the hawk. Species included: Blue Jay Robin Field Sparrow Swamp Sparrow Song Sparrow White-throated Sparrow Crow Canada Goose Ruby Crowned Kinglet Hermit Thrush Towhee Mourning Dove Red-bellied woodpecker Flicker Chickadee Titmouse Sharp shinned hawk Red tailed hawk Junco Yellow Rumped Warbler Rusty Blackbird (flyover) Chris Barnard Rockville, MD cbarnard52@aol.com ======================================================================= To leave the MDOsprey list, send e-mail to listserv@home.ease.lsoft.com with the following message in line 1: signoff mdosprey ======================================================================= =========================================================================
