Cobirders,
Here are some additional directions for the Brambling. After exiting C470 onto east bound Morrison Rd the entrance to Bear Creek Lake Park is approximately two tenths of a mile on the right. After paying the attendant or the self-registration drop box the road continues for another two tenths or so where it comes to a stop sign at a "T". Turn left at the stop sign and drive just over 1.1 miles to the Coyote Crossing Picnic Area. You will see a dirt road leading up to the gate on the left and a dirt road going down into the parking area on the right. Drive down and park in the lot and walk back up to the gate to observe the bird. Please observe the park rules and pay at the entrance to the park. It really is a small price to see such a wonderful bird and at the same time help support Bear Creek Lake Park. The birding community has a good reputation here and we would like further that with all of the observers coming to view the bird. And, remember to do a little birding around the park after seeing the Brambling. An Ancient Murrelet was observed at this park in November just over eight years ago, and one could speculate that this Brambling did not blow all the way down here by itself! Thanks again to Mike Henwood for first reporting this bird.
