Carol had four birds that I didn't have (Crow, Sapsucker, YR Warbler,
House sparrow) but I had six that carol didn't have .
FOX SPARROW 1
EASTERN TOWHEE 3
Grackle 100+
HERMIT THRUSH 1
GOLDEN CROWNED KINGLET 1
Harry Woodpecker 2
.
The Hermit Thrush has been in the "yard" for at least three weeks now,
seen eating bitter sweet berries, and seen getting a drink from the
water hole in our pond around the aerator. I think that makes 36 yard
birds already this year, the best being the Hermit Thrush, an Eastern
Phoebe, and a Winter Wren.
