I am sure most of you are aware that the Great Backyard Bird Count starts in 3 days. Last year, Ohio ranked 3rd in the nation in participation, and if we have another good turnout, we can move into 2nd place this year (bumping Pennsylvania). http://www.birdsource.org/gbbc/ I hope the Fox Sparrow that has been in my yard for the past 4 days remains long enough to be included in my GBBC list this year. ______________________________________________________________________ Ohio-birds mailing list, a service of the Ohio Ornithological Society.
