Yesterday afternoon I stopped by the Stewart Avenue bridge over Fall Creek to check out the redtail nest, which was occupied by one brooding red-tailed hawk. One week ago, there was no bird but plenty of fresh evergreen boughs (spruce?). Looking east (upstream), it is along the north cliff.
At night, when I arrived home around 9:15pm, a flap of wings drew my attention towards a bird flying from about 20-feet up a spruce tree away into the distance. The small-medium size and hummingbird-like flight suggested woodcock or snipe: are they know to roost in trees?
