Hi all this morning with the weather change I decided to bird in
Terrapin Park on Kent Island hopefull for Cave Swallows alas that was not
to be . The Place was quite birdy anyway . Loads of sparrows , Robins,
Waxwings, some finches also. The waxwings and Robins and Waxwings were
feeding on any berry they could find pokeberries , honeysuckle,mistletoe
etc much to the dismay of the Mockingbirds there . Numbers are off the
top of my head as I left my notes home and I am sending this from my
sisters Home.
