Great Backyard Bird Count
Here's the results I posted to The Great Backyard Bird Count. I should have filled the feeders earlier during the weekend so more of our regulars would have had time to find them; it was also quite windy, which seemed to keep some birds away. We actually got a thunderstorm during the end of the count, which helped to stir up the herons and egrets in the Laguna, which brought them into binocular range, so we got a nice assortment here.
