Official Results of Our Backyard Bird Count

Here are the results of our backyard bird count.  We had four sets of eyes and all birds were seen from either our kitchen window, front room windows or standing in our front yard.  It was a record for us.  We saw 18 species and identified 17.  The 18th might have been a hermit warbler.

    Since the count we have also spotted White-crowned
    Sparrow, Gold-crowned Sparrow and Black Phoebes. We have also seen gulls high overhead but aren’t even going to guess about them.
