Subject: BROWN THRASHER at HUNGRY HOLLOW. 20,000 SNOW BUNTINGS.
This morning, Pete Chapman found a BROWN THRASHER by the Ausable
River on Fossil Road. Directions--
(From the east) Exit 402 at interchange 56, (Kerwood Road) go north to
Townsend Line, turn left (west) and proceed to Sylvan Road (app. 5 Km.),
turn right (north) and proceed to Fossil Rd.(app. 1 Km.). Walk west along
the road as far as the old bridge abutments. Hopefully, the Thrasher is
in the Juniper thicket on the hill beside the road. (From the west) Exit
402 at interchange 44, (Nauvoo Road), go north to Townsend Line, turn
right (east)and proceed through Arkona to Sylvan Road. Proceed as above.
The SNOW BUNTINGS were densely packed, covering about an acre. This
huge flock was moving slowly Westwards towards Nauvoo Rd along the old
highway 22.
