The Shady Valley/Mtn City TN CBC (sponsored by the Bristol Bird Club) was a few birds lite as my eyes were crossing when I was typing the report. The list at www.audubon.org is correct. These Sparrows were accidently omitted. Please add them or, if you like, email me and I will send you a corrected total list. Thanks to Rick Knight for helping me find these flaws. Wild Turkey T-0, R-44, W-1, C-0, Total=44 (This is a HC count for Wild Turkeys, previous HC on Count 103 was 38) Killdeer T-1,R-1,W-1,C-0, Total=3 Hairy Woodpecker T-2, R-0, W-2, C-4, Total=8 Chipping Sparrow T-0, R-6, W-0, C-0, Total=6 (This is the first appearance of Chipping Sparrows in this Count. Rick had good looks through his spotting scope. It is listed as an Unusual Species species). Some technical notes - The Rock Pigeon's first appearance on this count is a bit misleading. Technically it is the first time Rock Pigeon is listed, but as Rick Knight pointed out, every count in North America will have this species as a new count bird. Rock Pigeon is the new name for the bird, formely known as Rock Dove, and the good people at Audubon did not make the String Variable reconize the previous name - Rock Pigeons (Doves) have appeared on the Shady Valley/Mountain City CBC before. The Northern Mockingbird count of 25 is a HC for Mockingbirds, previous HC in Count 100 was 20. Sorry for any confusion. As I said, if you want a total corrected list email me or view the data at www.audubon.org.
