I had a chance to check my feeders after being absent for the
last five days on a trip to West Virginia and Washington D.C. We still
have one "slate-colored" DARK-EYED JUNCO, three subspecies of FOX
SPARROW, Sooty, Slate-colored and a gorgeous Red. This is only the second
Red Fox Sparrow that we have had at our property in western Skamania
County. Also present were the first two AMERICAN GOLDFINCHES of the year.
As I drove past the Steigerwald Lake NWR near Washougal, Clark
County, there was still one very pale ROUGH-LEGGED HAWK there.
