[John Favinger <favebird@xxxxxxxxx>]

      Despite terrible conditions, 28 people braved
the rains and participated in the 2002-2003 CBC
at Muscatatuck NWR, Seymour IN, on New Years Day.  No
doubt the weather contributed to the numbers being
down from past counts, but the lack of winter finches
throughout the region was also a factor.
      Counters totaled 63 species for a total of
2366 birds.  Highlights would include 3 Bald Eagles,
30 Red-headed Woodpeckers, 79 Am. Robins, 5 Yellow-
rumped Warblers and 16 N. Mockingbirds.  Notable
misses would include Tundra Swan, Barred Owl and
certain fairly reliable species of waterfowl.
      If anyone would like a detailed copy of the
count, let me know.
