Field Notes

Description:

I saw this flock of birds on our property today and I'm not sure what they are. Yellow underneath with a yellow tip on their tail, brown feathers on back with a black mask on the eyes and a tuft on the head. I couldn't get close enough to get a real clear photo.

They often fly in large flocks and fill a tree. Such a sight! Nice spot!
