Thanks, Ruth. I've added the most recent sighting information to our NARBA reports. Pretty interesting that there are at least three Redwings in North America at one time. Now we need to find a Fieldfare, or am I getting greedy!

Best regards,

Ruth,

Just thought you'd want to know, from NARBA; "A REDWING was found on on February 2nd at the home of Kim Whitfie?ld of Spruce Hill Road, Topsail, Newfoundland. Topsail is about 20 km west of St. John's, Newfoundland, on Route 60. The bird is eating berries in the back yard at this location.
The bird continued on February 4th, but it was missed on February 5th. "



I sure enjoyed meeting you in Olympia. Thanks for all of your help. By the way, on Friday morning I saw the Roadside Hawk in San Ygnacio, Texas. It's been quite a year.
