Winter Has Arrived



In my previous posting, I mentioned that summer is over at Hilton 
Pond Center for Piedmont Natural History, as indicated by the 12 
October arrival of a Yellow-rumped Warbler and Ruby-crowned Kinglet.

Had I waited a day, I could have been more complete in my seasonal 
forecast by saying that today, 13 October, winter has finally 
arrived, as proved by the banding of the season's first 
White-throated Sparrow. :-)

Get those sleds and skis ready!


Happy Birding!
