All,
 
This morning Frank Vanslager and I saw several fly over flocks of RED  
CROSSBILLS (one flock estimated at 50 bids) before finally getting good views of  
the birds feeding on pine cones in the trees just off Monument trail  at the top 
of the hill in Henry Coe State Park.  RED-BREASTED NUTHATCHES  were all over 
the top of the hill, some actually seeming to move in small flocks  of 4 to 6 
birds.  Is this normal for Henry Coe or is it an irruptive  year for these 
species?  Some other species included MERLIN (2),  AMERICAN KESTREL, 
WHITE-BREASTED NUTHATCH (just two), OAK TITMOUSE,  CHESTNUT-BACKED CHICKADEE, DARK-EYED 
JUNCO, HAIRY WOODPECKER, NUTTALL'S  WOODPECKER, and ACORN WOODPECKER.  General 
bird activity was high, at one  point an entire, large Oak Tree was alive with 
a fast moving, mixed flock  of BUSHTITS, CBCH, OATI, and RBNU.  Birders 
sighted included Kathy Parker,  Peggy Don (RECR being a life bird for her) and 
Peggy's husband (Al?).
 
Take care,
Bob Reiling
