Birding Cape May Point - Saturday, January 4th, 2014

Very cold starting at 10 degrees with calm to light wind. Birds were feeding at weed and lawn edges or at feeders. We did manage to find the White-winged Dove and the two Eurasian Collared-Doves. The other highlights were the several Greater White-fronted Geese on a frozen Lily lake and the continuing Rufous Hummingbird at a feeder at Cambridge and Coral Aves. Leaders: Karl Lukens, Kathy & Roger Horn, and Tom Baxter.
