Frontyard birding



Just finished my first of three bird surveys for the Cornell University urban bird count. The idea is to choose a random 10-minute period and observe if any urban birds from their list visit your location. Today I only spotted finch, sparrow  and crow. (Though I put down red-tailed hawk as the most interesting bird spotted that was not on the list.) The Cornell Lab of Ornithology offers a lot of great programs for schools and community members to participate in that assists in the lab's ongoing research of our fine feathered friends.
