November 20 - Warmington Road & Lock 4 Park

Starting Weather:
Ending Weather:
Distance Covered:  1.13 mile

Time:  PM -  PM
Brown Creeper
Today's travels began with a trip to the Warmington Road area.  We hadn't been here for awhile, and everything was starting to look wintery.  We always seem to see unusual birds here, and today was no exception.  We saw a little bird scaling a tree, and had no idea what it was.  It was brown striped, and so was hard to distinguish from the tree bark.  When we arrived home, we looked in our bird book and learned that it was a Brown Creeper, a cousin to the tree-hugging Nuthatch.    Next we stopped off at Lock 4 Park, hoping to find some birds there as well.  Not a lot going on there bird-wise, but always a scenic and photogenic stop!
