Birds of the Equinox Recap

I was inspired by Andy, of Andy's Lens , and finally got around to entering my Birds of the Equinox count to Birdstack. I've had a login for a while actually, but this was my first time creating a list . Here's my list from the day: Bufflehead Common Merganser Red-tailed Hawk Song Sparrow Hairy Woodpecker Pine Siskin American Goldfinch Mourning Dove Dark-eyed Junco Tufted Titmouse Black-capped Chickadee I didn't get to go out during my lunch break since I had meetings the whole day (it was such a busy day) but at least I watched my feeders in the morning and watched for birds during my drive to work. I drive along Charles River Road during the last leg of my commute so I always check out the river as I drive along it. It helps that the speed limit of 30mph is strictly enforced so I have an excuse to go slow and look for ducks!

Birds of the Equinox Count

I decided to participate in the Birds of the Equinox BirdStack count . Is anyone else doing it? It's a beautiful day here in the East and I'm curious to see what I run into later on. I've done some feeder-watching already at home, and during lunch I plan to go for a walk on the Charles River to see what birds are hanging out down there. I've had some really good luck at the Charles River- it's fun to reminisce and look at old posts from those trips: http://birdinggirl.blogspot.com/search/label/charles%20river Happy Birding!
