Red-winged Blackbird (2 males), Cooper's Hawk (female), Red-tailed Hawk (male), 
Killdeer, Eastern Towhee (male).

Blackbird (male), Black Vultures*(5), Red-tailed Hawk (pair), Northern Flicker, 
Eastern Towhee (male).
03/13 - American Robin *(80 in a flock), Pileated Woodpecker, Killdeer, 
*Brown Creeper, Red-tailed Hawk, Field Sparrow, Eastern Towhee (male).
03/14 - Field Sparrow,  Common Grackle, Killdeer, Eastern Meadowlark (2), 
Northern Flicker, Eastern Phoebe *(3), Red-winged Blackbird (male), Turkey

Mourning Dove (22), Great Blue Heron, White-throated Sparrow (4), House Finch 
(2 males and 2 females), Turkey Vulture *(12), Eastern Phoebe, Pileated 
Woodpecker, Eastern Towhee (male).
These were all seen while doing yard or housework, not birding per se.  Many 
of the days I was gone for a good portion of the day and saw the birds before 
or afterwards.
