I&#8217;ve also glanced at Jonas Green Park, but haven&#8217;t seen anything worth stopping for.<\/p>\n<p>I got some nice closeups of a Long Tailed Duck and a White Throated Sparrow. A Cardinal has been attacking my car mirror at Thomas Point, and I recorded the action.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/hughvandervoort.com\/?attachment_id=44580\" rel=\"attachment wp-att-44580\"><img
