First, Alan Boyd alerted mocosocoBirds that there were 18 Redheads at Clark Drive in Mt. Olive this morning. Then Mike Hiotis sent the following: “Redhead roulette continues at Clark Dr., Mt. Olive as the gang of Redheads numbered 19 today!!”

When will it end? Where are they coming from and why are they going there?

An hour’s afternoon walk through Glenhurst Meadows in Warren Township turned up a handful of noisy Rusty Blackbirds, 2-3 Red-Shouldered Hawks, a Ruby-crowned Kinglet and 5 American Tree Sparrows as well as typical species of the the area. An interesting item regarding the Am. Tree Sparrows: this is the only record in eBird for this species in the entirety of Somerset County in February, 2012! Not everyone uses eBird regularly for sure, but one would think this species would be recorded at some point during the month. Hmm.
