66 Diner on Historic Highway 66

Love the sweet little bird shadow. Redpoll waiting for a turn at the bird feeder.

Interesting Facts

During the long Arctic night, redpolls sleep in snow tunnels to preserve body heat.

Although not considered a migratory bird, one of these birds, bearing a band with Chinese markings, was captured in Norway, having traveled over 4000 miles.

Several Redpolls have been seen on a twig feeding each other by passing a seed from bill to bill.

A group of redpolls are collectively known as a "gallup" of redpolls.

Hubby and I got up very early this morning to head out to Gallup Park in Ann Arbor before sunrise. No sunrise though, just a very heavy fog and most difficult to take photos, at least with my expertise anyway.

Oh, and we forgot the tripod...shots might have come out better had we had that.

Ann Arborites and their visiting guests were out enjoying the Huron River at Gallup Park. The weather was just right for a 4th of July Holiday!
