Hey all -
With the car acting up, I scratched Hoary Redpoll from
the day's agenda and stayed near home. First stop was
E. 72nd, where at 8 this morning, I was met by a
brutal nonstop wind from the north. There were quite
a few ducks present (several hundred total - mostly
Canvasback, Redhead, scaup, and goldeneye), more than
I have seen here all winter, but very few gulls.
After freezing long enough to determine there was
northing odd among them, I headed inland to CVNP.
At Jaite, a NORTHERN SHRIKE was perched atop the
tallest tree out in the marsh. The entire time I was
there, it was hanging out in the area of trees and
shrubs right along Riverview Rd. Two Tundra Swans
also flew over here and a trio of Field Sparrows were
along the railroad tracks, with 15 or so Swamp
Sparrows in the frozen marsh.
Station Rd. yielded a creeper and a Oak Hill a G-c
Kinglet.
Also wanted to note that a MERLIN is once again
present on the Tri-C West campus in Parma, the 8th
straight winter according to my tabs.
