Include what you want to. I left out some of the "every yard" birds.
Yesterday on the old Savanna Army Depot, I had Cornell's Merlin App running and it detected vocals from the Eastern Towhee, and the Osprey. Never seen either bird that I recognized it. But want to. Looked hard but the brush was thick.
64 years old and never seen some of the common birds around me. Time to make up time...
