Winter Wanderland

10,000 Birds

After a pleasant morning with ducks, crisp snow and sunshine, we followed the wildlife trail on our way out. Our internet research showed that somebody in Pine County had all three ( Black, Brown-capped, and Gray-crowned ) Rosy Finches on the feeders in their garden. And now I did. It is also bird 2100 on my life list. Chuffed to bits!

Roadside Birding and Flathead Lake

10,000 Birds
