Essex County Sunday 11/04/01

The White-winged Crossbills were in our faces, or at least, pretty close to our shoe laces,

on this fine Sunday morning in Salisbury State Reservation.

Kind of cooperative, eh?

Later in the afternoon, this Western Kingbird was visible in West Newbury (Cherry Hill Res.).

The reservoir had about a thousand Ring-necked Ducks, along with lower numbers of Ruddy Ducks.
