The Friendship CBC in Adams County was held today in bitter sub-zero
temperatures, under brilliant, clear blue skies. We tallied around 39
species, including some new to the count: horned lark, hermit thrush, field
sparrow (documentary photo taken), fox sparrow, and snow bunting. Other
highlights included golden eagle, northern shrike, and purple finch (the
only "winter" finch found on this year's count).
Thanks to everyone who participated, and a special Iron Man award to Dan
Doeppers, who turned up ready to go in spite of receiving 16 stitches in his
leg after an icy fall just days before the count. That's commitment!
