[Birdtalk] Ogden Cemetery

[Betsy_Beneke at fws.gov]

Was running errands in Ogden this morning and took some time to bird in the
Ogden City Cemetery.  There was quite a bit of bird activity, most of it
near the intersection of 7th Ave. and Martin St.  All the likely birds were
there, like juncoes, house finches, robins, magpies, and black-capped
chickadees.

Also saw a northern mockingbird - harassing the house finches.  Pretty
interesting to watch.  Between 20 and 30 red crossbills were present - oh
to have a long lens for my camera!!!  Townsend's solitaire, red-breasted
nuthatch, golden-crowned kinglet and mountain chickadee - several of each.

HAPPY THANKSGIVING, EVERYONE!
