Re: first fish crow of spring--Durham



Triangle Birders,

A few Fish Crows do seem to linger all winter in the triangle.  One good 
place to see/hear them is around the Oak Creek shopping center (Chili's, 
TJ Maxx, Outdoor Bird Co., etc) at 15-501 and Garrett Rd.  They likely 
nest in the nearby woods.  My "year" Fish Crow came when I was shopping 
there 17 Jan 01.

Cheers,  Jeff
