Hi Tweets,
Today other birders and I went on a trip to Paradise in search of
the infamous ptarmigan. On the "long" trail to panorama point we ecounter
many GRAY-CROWNED ROSEY FINCHES with begging juv. lower elevation then i
have ever see before. About 200 yards east of Golden Gate we did encounter
the WHITE-TAILED PTARMIGAN with 9 chick (4-6 days old) We watched the
WHITE-TAILED PTARMIGAN and chicks for about 15 minutes. If you have any
other Q's please write.
