Following up on Jen Brumfield's auditory alert of the Red Crossbill, I was in my yard messing with my spotting scope and new camera at 10:30am when I heard a flight of Tundra Swans coming from way off. I spotted them very high and was able to swing my spotting scope up to watch about 20+ ivory colored swans moving NW to SE. I quickly ran to the car (where I keep my birding stuff) and confirmed the calls on my Stokes CD. Then went into the house to log them as a "Yard Bird" for November and saw the I had them logged on March 1 flying over from SE to NW. Amazing! Makes you wonder if it was the same group. What's the chance???? Keep your ears open! Back to yard work!!!
