Busy day!
Ava reported a single
juvenile CEDAR WAXWING in her yard, feeding on Mt Ash berries and chased from
tree to tree by a territorial resident ROBIN.
My neighbor reported two
juvenile NORTHERN SHRIKES flying around the yard at noon. One chased a
STELLER'S JAY.
I refound the SHORT-EARED OWL
and a single AMERICAN PIPIT at the beach.
Robin C reported a NORTHERN HARRIER
hunting over the salt marsh. He also found a TRUMPETER SWAN cygnet in distress
at the head of the bay off Mile 2 Nash Road. The Alaska Sealife Center
rescuers, including Tasha, managed to capture the bird and calm it with a
blanket. The swan has a broken foot and will be cared for at the ASLC.
A single swan was reported at
5:30 pm standing on the ice at the Mile 1 Nash Road wetlands. The open water is
rapidly closing.
Robin C also reported a
SOLITARY SANDPIPER on Monday, October 22, a very late sighting.
Happy Birding!
