Hi All, I went to Summer Hill in hopes of seeing Evening Grosbeaks, but no luck. I turned onto Dresser Road from Salt Road. (Dave Nutter and I saw a deer carcass there a week ago.) When I drove by it, the deer looked pretty well picked clean. There were no birds around. Hmmm. I drove down the road a little ways, turned around, and parked far enough away from the carcass, but close enough to have a good view of it. I could hear little chip sounds but couldn't see any birds. For some reason, I looked on the other side of the road just in time to see a large grey bird flying away from me. I think it had been perched across from my car. I watched it until it disappeared in the trees - NORTHERN GOSHAWK! Good birding, Ann
