Snow Buntings and More

[Napper]

Hey

 I took some advice and had a drive up 4th line Milton today

On 15th side road between 4th and 5th I found heavy diggings in a tree (at the S bend) so I stopped and decided to wait and see what was around.
It didn't take long. Downy woodpeckers, Golden crowned Kinglet, 5 Am Robins, a wack of Chickadee's
 & White Breasted Nuthatches. After the Police car drove by I moved on.

I decided to venture down a very snow covered 3rd line South of 15th sideroad. This is where I found at least 100 Snow buntings near a house with a feeder.

Napper  sorry Kinglet was to quik for me

Those 8 robins are now in my backyard as i type. Umm, is this not a little odd?

15 mins north of Milton.

Thanks for the heads up on the snow buntings, i think i'll go aound the corner and see if they are around.

Hey!!

Thats not odd.. The robins were feeding on the sumac at the S bend.. it is not that far from your place.

The reason I stopped there was because of the diggings in the trees. They were very large indicating maybe a Pileated might be around.. I was hoping anyway.

I made a slight mistake the Snow buntings were South of 10th side rd. on Third line.. (Turn South at Andrews scenic acres)
