Hello All, I hiked into Maple Swamp,[Pleasure Drive, Flanders], this morning and found a perched flock of fourteen Red Crossbills by the inner pond. Other birds in the vicinity were 2 Blue Gray Gnatcatcher, 2 Palm Warblers, many Ruby Crowned Kinglets, Yellowrumped Warblers,lots of Pine Warbler, a Hermit Thrush, Eastern Phoebe and Brown Creeper. This area is especially bad for ticks in season and I did pick up several today. Good April Birding, Carl Starace
