Thanks for the info, Matt. That type of material is exactly what I had hoped to have as I bumble around D.C. in search of feathered friends (in between rain storms, as I'm a weak kneed Oregonian.) Any suggestions for audio recordings, other than Cornell's site? I am planning on recording a few calls that drive me crazy around here, in the hope that I can meet with the group at some time and get help identifying a few shy visitor birds. Toni M So.

The blue fold-up one I have appears to be from 2008. If anyone doesn't have one, I would recommend getting one, as it lists all bird species known to have occurred in Douglas County up to the point of publication, has little boxes for checking if interested, and has abundance ratings for each of four seasons, which gives you a general/rough idea of their presence during those four seasons. It also identifies which species are known to nest in the county. It also has some nice artwork. Field Checklist of the Birds of Douglas County." You can get one of these by emailing info@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx, or come to one of the Umpqua Valley Audubon programs (see events at www.umpquaaudubon.org)..... so long as they still have some.... I am a few days away from finishing a "similar but different" publication (it will be a two-page flyer type thing), that will show about 200 of the most regularly occurring species in central Douglas County and the seasonal timing and abundance of each. I think it is a very interesting presentation of information, and I'll let you all know when it is available. You will be able to download it from the web, and pick it up from Audubon events, etc. Additional two-pagers will be available for the Cascades and Coast in subsequent months.

The one I have says "C" for "Common" for Hairy Woodpecker (Douglas County as a whole). In any case, see my other mssg for more detail.
