OUR BIRDS IN AUTUMN

December. The Bluebird often makes its last visit to us in October. 

 Like other northern species, the Shrike is a wanderer, which may 

 choose other feeding grounds than ours. 



Species seen for the first time were: Lark vSparrow, Savanna 

 Sparrow, Montana Juhco, Virginia Rail, Connecticut Warbler. 

 The Montana Junco was feeding with some common Snowbirds 

 and was easily distinguished from them.
