* at Mt. Royal feeders............. Mobility in the cemetery was very restricted due to icy conditions.** NO woodpeckers, NO House Sparrows, NO Eurorean Starlings
You are all invited to bird the cemetery, especially from mid-March through late November.
This past spring and summer has been very busy.... with loads of bluebirds,vireos, warblers, flycatchers, Merlins, Cooper's and Sharp-shinned, various woodpeckers etc.
Quite a different experience from the dreadful cold days of mid winter
