Tips for Birding

The Holy Angels section have many close trees and usually the better place to pick up the Crossbills and Cassin's Finches. The more open Elm Grove section is much more open but with bigger trees. This is where hawks are more possible, plus sparrows and scrub specialties are a plenty on the western and southern fence rows. Plus many migrants are found here. 

Birds of Interest

Best known for wintering sparrows and occasional rarities such as Red Crossbills or Cassin's Finches during an irruptive year. Plus Harris Hawk and Evening Grosbeak.
