I’m missing some for sure. Have a list at home with the books I use to identify. Enjoy feeding and watching birds and have for years. Cool topic. Fun to rack my brain in the midst of a thunderstorm.
Stupid house cats are making a return here. They are hard on our birds. Coyotes had them extinct for years but now they (Yotes) seem to have disappeared. We are seeing a resurgence of rabbits, squirrels and groundhogs too.
