February 28, 2010

This is the last day of the month. We've had another big snowfall and on the day before Jerry left for his Carribean Cruise his concern was wondering if the Pipit survived the snowfall prior to this one. Well Jerry thePipit is still there at Pte Moo HQ.
Walt Pawlawski was out that morning and in our conversation he stated that there is just one Pipit and that it travels with a Song Sparrow and a Swamp Sparrow. He said I may have misinterpreted one of the other birds for another Pipit.














So after sitting out there for a little over 3 hours I did see the Pipit, Song Sparrow, Swamp Sparrow and American Tree Sparrow.

These birds were not the only ones I saw. At 8 a.m. the water was full of Goldeneye, Bufflehead, Mergansers, Scaup, Coots, Geese, Mute Swans, and Tundras. By 11:00 a.m. they were gone except for a group of Scaups sleeping. That was the last day of the month. Til my next post.
