[birding] First BT Pigeon

[Chris Miller]

Hi all,

 

Lucky me - saw the first Band-tailed pigeon in my yard this afternoon (March
4th).

I'm sure the rest of the crew will follow soon to raid all the bird feeders!

 

Also had a SS Hawk run a Varied Thrush into a window, and then retrieve it
(already dead) from the bushes - all this as I was watching close by. I hope
this isn't a new trend for the local Sharpies!

 

Still have some GC and WC Sparrows hanging around, and I still have
sightings of the YS Flicker, as well as other Flickers.

No Rufus yet.

 

Come on Spring!
