Barbara and I went over today. Quite an experience! Invited in for tea and treats we watched the redpolls swarm to within = 6ft of their front door, on the ground and on the feeders and into the = dormant flowering crab trees within 30' ft of their front door. With so many in close proximity it was too easy to decide on a number = that looked much lighter than others. We were there at about 1300 and = stayed for at least 90 mins., once we were inside the house the activity = never stopped until we opened the door to leave. No traffic to disturb the birds; it is an ideal opportunity for unique = photographs and searching for the various species and subspecies.=20 Cheers, Barbara and Pat ------=_NextPart_000_00A3_01C85544.613E0250 Content-Type: text/html; charset="Windows-1252" Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable <!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.0 Transitional//EN"> <HTML><HEAD> <META http-equiv=3DContent-Type content=3D"text/html; = charset=3Dwindows-1252"> <META content=3D"MSHTML 6.00.6000.16587" name=3DGENERATOR> <STYLE></STYLE> </HEAD> <BODY bgColor=3D#ffffff> <DIV><FONT face=3DArial size=3D2>Hi Barbara, and Pat,</FONT></DIV> <DIV><FONT face=3DArial size=3D2></FONT> </DIV> <DIV><FONT face=3DArial size=3D2>has this e-mail been sent to me by = mistake?
