All the results are in for out Christmas Bird Count. Thanks to all who
participated. We had totals of 80 species and 13,972 individuals. I have
included the list for this year and the previous two years. Our species count
was good, but the total individuals were down a little this year. I have
highlighted some of the notable misses and finds in yellow.
Have a great new year's
