Rosy Finches

Date of sighting: March 7, 2012
As I hiked up the Parker Bench trail from the Rush Creek Trailhead yesterday (Wednesday), I was swarmed by a small flock of GRAY-CROWNED ROSY-FINCHES. On my way back down, I witnessed a colossal cloud of Rosy-finches. I estimated 500-600. They just poured over the ridge twittering and bouncing in the air. It was amazing.
Also on Wednesday, I went down to County Park and the pair of TRUMPETER SWANS was still there, milling about with the CANADA GEESE.
