December 1, 2012 Grandvue

Grandvue has added to their feeding station. In fact they now have three stations with more than twenty feeders. This will make for great birding this winter. Hopefully we can get people interested and involved in observation and seed donations. Today was a beautiful day, mid 50s, sunny. I observed the following counts by species (most at one time): Goldfinch 15, house finch 12, C. Chickadee 7, Titmouse 9, Hairy Woodpecker 2, Downy Woodpecker 1, Cardinal 2, Blue Jay 2, Song Sparrow 3, Red Bellied Woodpecker 1,
Grandvue has placed a feeding station by the banquet hall. I encourage everyone to support this endeavor and hope it leads to new and better birding opportunities.
