Town: Spruce Pine		State/Province: NC	Country:
A flock, approximately 25 birds, flew up from my feeder(and landed in my tulip popular tree, The feeder is not viewable from my window, however, from the direction that they flew into sight and into the tree, they had to be at our feeder(which at them moment) is full(both feeders). Took me a second or two to ascertain what they were..as my mourning doves generally land in that tree from the feeder. It is a foggy, cool day and we live approximately 1/2 mile from the Blue Ridge Parkway. Right now there is one red wing in the tree, just flew down to the feeder, two mourning doves, and one red-headed sapsucker in the Tulip Popular.
