Brown Creeper: Ralph Hocken Photo.
Hi birders,
The Early birders went to the newly opened Moorecroft Park in Nanoose Bay. The morning was sunny and warm with a breeze off the Strait of Georgia. We saw and heard Brown Creepers throughout the morning. A flock of Ruby-crowned Kinglets along with a Hutton's Vireo entertained us as they moved through the bushes not far from us. We watched a Warbling Vireo, Downy Woodpeckers and Hairy Woodpecker, feeding on bushes at the Beaver Pond.
Nine birders saw and heard the following twenty-eight species of birds:
