Seneca Creek State Park between Rt. 118 and Riffleford Rd. - Overall 
number of birds low but  some nice Winter birds including  RED-BREASTED 
NUTHATCH (first non-feeder sighting for me in Mo. Cty), Hermit Thrush, 
Winter Wren,  Brown Creeper,  and Yellow-bellied Sapsucker.

Also stopped at  Rt. 121 bridge  for a quick scan of Little Seneca 
Lake.  Nothing that hasn't been reported over the past month or so.  Did 
see one of the EARED GREBES.  Other birds included:
