I was so excited I couldn't wait to add him-and of course I knew I wouldn't get a better shot for the Count :(

I'll try to add my lists tomorrow-all four days!

WHERE were all the BIRDS today? Did anybody ELSE in the southeast notice a HUGE lack of birds either overhead or at their feeders???

I'n disappointed, but will report it anyway, because ALL information is important in analyzing trends and stuff like that. Frankly, I think a TON of the birds have already begun migrating to summer grounds . . .

I hope everybody had fun and enjoyed counting. The pool is open until March 1st for you to submit your pictures!!!

I can't WAIT to see your photos!!!! I'm working on some of mine too . . . I'll leave the pool open until March 1st or so for pictures taken during the count. If that's not enough time for people, they can always send them to the queue for "approval" . . . ha ha ha ha ha.

LOVE your "lifers" - - - that's fabulous!!!!
