NO NEW BIRD FOR DECEMBER

Barred Owl came for a visit in December.

 

American Tree sparrow showed up on December 15
 and got onto our Christmas Bird Count count-week.
Still here December 31, 2013
so I will get a Tree Sparrow  on  my 2014 Bird list for January
Coping with the minus 30 degree F. temperatures.
