** Louise Nichols got a surprise when she was refueling feeders on Tuesday
morning after the storm to see the REDPOLLS so anxious they lit on her
outstretched mitten to get the booty.
** Peggy Barnett in Moncton has an AMERICAN ROBIN coming to her backyard
that is foraging on hotdog she puts out for a gull. With all the fruit around
one would think the wiener may not be the first choice but not for this robin!
** I came across several PINE GROSBEAKS enjoying the seeds of clinging crab
apple fruit on a tree near the very busy Mountain Rd./Mapleton Rd. intersection.
They sure we're unconcerned about city traffic and people.
** After opinions on Brian Stone's two hybrid ducks we are now ready to
label them. One as being a BLACK X MALLARD hybrid duck and the second as a
NORTHERN PINTAIL X MALLARD hybrid. There are labelled today and attached to the
blogger site and the membership distribution list.
