Watched and listened to a nicely marked Townsend's at Afton State Park this morning about 11:30. The bird was singing and feasting on cedar berries. Location: pine and cedar plantation rows 1/4 mile west of the trail shelter on the north end of the park. Follow the trail from the shelter west through the "prairie" section to the row of pines. There are often red-breasted nuthatches here; they were present today also.
This bird will make it onto another birder's Christmas Count list as some other birders came along behind us while the bird was still present and singing. Happy Birding, Michelle Piotrowski _________________________________________________________________ Fixing up the home?
