MacCready Preserve Tour by Don Henise

Our day got started with a nice adult Red-shouldered Hawk flying over the parking lot as we were getting organized. Other highlights were Red Crossbills on the red trail, 6 woodpecker species including 2 Pileated Woodpeckers, and a Yellow-bellied Sapsucker, Hermit Thrush, Brown Creepers, Golden-crowned Kinglet, singing Song Sparrows, and calling Red-breasted Nuthatches.

On the way back to the cars, Robyn found the Townsend's Solitaire. It was on the red trail just 150 yards north of the parking lot. We had a total of 33 species and nice weather.
