Hello Tweeters and Curtis and Bobby Pearson,
Both Bobby and Curtis told me bout this sighting at the last WOS meeting.I
usual don't attend this meeting ,since I don't drive nights.But Joann Sims
what joining WOS at the memorial for Patrick where she was so impressed by
the compassion of this birders.But we went and watched Dennis Paulson trip
to Africa,what was so breath taking seeing most all birds and Mammals so
close.I talked to Bobby,she is always so nice and it was her who sent me the
address by E-mail.
As we went there in the afternoon the first time,we did not saw this
birds.As I already mention,birding became so slow basically nothing after
3.00 PM. I knocked on the door and talked to Gary,what a nice guy,he is
certainly a naturalist,and got the feeders full at all time.He mention the
mornings is better.So we went the next morning real early and as we
approached here was all kind of Rosy Finches all over the yard,maybe 40 of
them and two species of these birds.I looked at my photos and I have both
species photographed.Thank you Bobby and Curtis for this tip,all birders was
so happy to see this birds.Photos of this birds are on
