Title: Ashbridges Bay Sunday April 28
Post by: Rotarran on April 30, 2013, 12:12:02 AM
Got to photograph some very nice birds in less than 40 minutes on Sunday at Ashbridges Bay.  I went for the Eared Grebe and found the European Goldfinch, Palm Warbler, Towhee, Winter Wren, Common Tern (not pictured) and Northern Harrier (not pictured either).  I guess the proximity to the Leslie Spit does spill over onto Ashbridges quite often.

11:18 am - European Goldfinch

Really great catches Rotarren, especially the European Goldfinch... Congrats!  Also, thanks very much for your directions... I did not find the E. Goldfinch, but I managed to find most of the others.  I'll post them later.  Cheers

For the past week I have been hosting a lovely European Goldfinch on my nyjer feeders in the Beach. He has been flying around with a number of other goldfinches and has been returning regularly.
