Greetings all good birders.

Headed out to Green Lawn Cemetery this morning in the hopes that the
resurgence in White-winged Crossbill reports of late would mean a
sighting: No luck (though I certainly don't consider my search
exhaustive).

Highlights included:

Yellow-bellied Sapsucker- at least 2. I observed a male (near the
bridge) and female (near the quarry) (believe it or not, this was a
lifer and completes my sapsucker cycle)

Pine Siskins- 3-5 associating with a flock of American Goldfinch at
the nyjer feeder at the quarry

Blue Jay- doing a rather bad mimic of a Red-tailed Hawk call in the
vicinity of a Cooper's Hawk


Good birding to all.
