When I have seen a N Gos there in years past it has always been in the thickest section of cottonwoods, guessing more than a half mile from parking lot. But I have not seen it this winter.

Brant cont. at Veterans Mem Park
This afternoon Steve Dougill and I watched the Brant in the water near the footbridge. It was accompanied by 100+ Canadas and some ducks.
In the neighborhood where my son lives, near Garfield School, about 15 Yellow-rumps were busy in a mixed flock of juncos, waxwings etc. I could not find any other warbler species in the flock. They successfully gleaned insects from spider webs and drank a bit at a wet down spout. 50+ degrees is apparently easy living for warblers!

Re: Nampa CBC
Denise and Cheryl have my heartfelt appreciation for making the 2019 Nampa CBC possible.
They are excellent facilitators, it takes a Village to pull off a CBC, I am grateful they are in our Village.
Merry Christmas to all!
