Hey!

This is cool!. We spent the weekend in Tiny township

From our deck we were able to observe

2 Pileated wood peckers (no images or video worth looking at)
x chipping sparrows
x song sparrows
1 Merlin (overflight)
1 Barn Swallow
x Northern flickers (everywhere)
x American Robins
x Black Cap chickade's
x House wren
x American goldfinch
x Hairy Woodpecker  (sounded like a dogs squeak toy)
x Canada geese (overflight large group)
x DC Cormorants (overflight singles)
1 Female Northern Cardinal (unusual for our place)
x Red Wing Blackbirds

XX Red Eyed Vireo heard but as always not seen.

Napper :)   Tall trees, I always seem to have Warblers neck when I get home


Off topic, we spotted a male/Tom Turkey at the  hwy 400 and hwy 11 split on the way up on Friday. Freshly plowed field..

:!:Cautionary note: Careful if you plan on birding in North Halton . A Turkey hunt is ongoing in certain Tracts North of the town of Milton. :!:
