Hilton Pond 01/01/02 (Ebony & Ivory)




HI . . .

The first installment of "This Week at Hilton Pond" for 2002 is 
finally finished and posted to the Web site for Hilton Pond Center 
for Piedmont Natural History.

The topic is "Ebony and Ivory," an account of the hordes of 
blackbirds that arrived to feed during our January snowstorm. There 
are some close-up photos of three blackbird species--including one of 
an Rusty Blackbird that will reveal some interesting characteristics 
of this ever-more-elusive bird.

For more photos and the essay--plus a list of birds banded or 
recaptured during the week of 1-7 January 2002--just visit 
http://www.hiltonpond.org/ThisWeek020101.html .

And please don't forget to forward this message to folks who share 
our interest in nature.


With best wishes for a great 2002,

BILL
