White-winged Scoter / Common Winter Birds


Quality trumped quantity in the Muskegon Channel this morning with only one visible bird, a White-winged Scoter (first spring female?) way over on the north side.


The Muskegon Lake Nature Preserve provided 17 more species, all common winter birds including a few that posed for pictures.  (No towhee.)

American Tree Sparrow

One of Brian's White-breasted Nuthatches

Four Downy Woodpeckers played tag all over the place.

This Black-capped Chickadee also met Brian.
