Today there was a good variety of birds here in the backyard feeding area in Norwich village. An adult Cooper's Hawk landed on one of the feeder poles about 3:55 PM and provided my first sighting of that species for 2010. > > Location: Norwich > Observation date: 1/3/10 > Number of species: 16 > > Cooper's Hawk 1 > Mourning Dove 1 > Downy Woodpecker 1 > Hairy Woodpecker 1 > Blue Jay 3 > American Crow 7 > Black-capped Chickadee 4 > Tufted Titmouse 1 > White-breasted Nuthatch 1 > European Starling 14 > American Tree Sparrow 1 > White-throated Sparrow 7 > Dark-eyed Junco (Slate-colored) 10 > Northern Cardinal 6 > House Finch 2 > American Goldfinch 5 > > This report was generated automatically by eBird v2(http://ebird.org/vt > ) George George Clark Norwich, VT **************************************************************** To post messages, send e-mail to: [log in to unmask] Set your e-mail application to PLAIN TEXT ONLY to post messages.
