Hello all=2C
Today (Thurs) at 10:00 at the corner of Clifford and Anderson in Woodlawn a=
rea of Dartmouth=2C
I saw an adult male Brown-headed Cowbird in the company of several House Sp=
arrows. They
were in the Multi-flora rose bush tangle behind the pumping station. From t=
here=2C I walked=20
around Landrace Park. At the Portland St end of the park there were two Rob=
ins and one
male Cardinal.=20
I walked north on Clifford to John Martins' feeders at 14 Clifford where I =
saw the B.H.C.B.
again (10:20). It was activily feeding with House Sparrows and Starlings. T=
here was also
one male Cardinal present.
With overcast skys and a light mist the viewing conditions were not ideal b=
ut I got a good=20
look from less than ten meters. This bird had a dark eye=2C black bill and =
legs=2C a dark chocolate
brown head and uniformally black body. The image on page 441 of National Ge=
ographic=2C "Birds
of North America" third edition closely resembles the bird I saw.
