A nice flock of about 100 White-winged Crossbills put on a great show today at Woodlawn. Hearing them cracking open the pine cones as they fed was a real treat on such a beautiful Sunday morning. There was also a nice flock of about 50 Common Redpolls that worked feverishly in a sycamore at close range before flying over to a spruce and disappearing in the dense branches. Eventually emerging they started the feeding frenzy again. Oak Openings hosted a group of about 15 Pine Siskins near the nature center. Several great looks at Red-headed Woodpeckers as well as a single Field Sparrow just to name a few. Red-tailed Hawks seemed to be in full force today and at one point over Oak Openings 3 were lazily flying together. It was great to end the day with a lone Screech Owl tucked in a spruce tree. Hope everyone got out for a bit to enjoy the February weather! ______________________________________________________________________ Ohio-birds mailing list, a service of the Ohio Ornithological Society.
