This Week at Hilton Pond 01/08/01



It's been a slow winter at Hilton Pond Center for Piedmont Natural 
History as far as birds are concerned. Even so, lots of things are 
happening.

If you've ever wondered how big rocks turn into little rocks, check 
out "'Thin is In' for Crustose Lichens" at the Center's website. Just 
click on http://www.hiltonpond.org , go to "This Week at Hilton 
Pond," and select the week of 8-14 January.

Bird banding totals for the week are also included, as is a photo of 
a Chipping Sparrow in winter plumage.

Happy Nature Watching!
