Red-shouldered Hawk (01, 02), Hairy Woodpecker (01, 01). Totals: 44
species,
448 individuals. It was not very scientific because the birds I saw depended
to
some extent where I was in the property, what I was doing, and how much time
I actually was at home. But it is interesting! John Moyle Glen Alpine Road
