We had a Slate-colored Junco this afternoon at one of our feeders. It
was with a mixed flock of the typical winter feeder birds. It was
only the second one I've seen here in the last few years. . .
Also as I was driving east on Sycamore Valley Road in Danville, I
spotted a Snowy Egret precariously perched on the wires. I don't
recall ever seeing an egret on wires before. Then as I was driving
west a few minutes later, I spotted a Belted Kingfisher at about the
same spot.
Also in Danville, the crows adjacent to the Big O tires have been
putting on a show for at least a week now. They take walnuts high up
on the wires and drop them onto the road below in hopes of cracking
them open. Pretty ingenious. . . .
