I have a blog at http://quabbinvalley.wordpress.com/ and at the very bottom of the page is a post titled, Gate 54A. Below it I have a picture of what I believe to be a Cedar Waxwing that I saw on Winsor Dam a little over a year ago. I was wondering if you could just go and look at that picture and let me know if I'm right or not and, if not, please let me know what it is exactly by commenting. Thanks in advance!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3123720882247241987.post-52662903797712258322012-10-28T17:04:49.566-07:002012-10-28T17:04:49.566-07:00Thanks...we were really hopeful to find the longsp...Thanks...we were really hopeful to find the longspurs and we lucked out. Looks like you had some good birds too. I think the storm is really in uncharted territory and it is tough to figure out what the storm will bring. I know I will be looking but who knows if it will pay off.Larryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15173127478266831293noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3123720882247241987.post-58851363311774308692012-10-28T16:56:31.772-07:002012-10-28T16:56:31.772-07:00Congrats on the 30 thousand view makr and Lapland ...Congrats on the 30 thousand view makr and Lapland Longspurs Larry! We were out looking for them today too in plowed fields and didn't have the same luck. We did get a modest flock of Horned Larks and a very nice American Golden Plover in the same area though which somewhat made up for it but still want a Lapland this year! Thanks for the storm updates. I'm trying to figure out if a day off form work this week will be worth it or not so this helps Kimhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05539583838978744802noreply@blogger.com
