Start with the bright, colorful ones. Then the Raptors
Gold Finch Rose Breasted Grossbeak Cardinal
Bald Eagle
Canada Geese Pelican
House Finch Brown headed Cowbird Chickadee Red winged Blackbird.
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...

I see regularly at the feeder and around the house Cardinals Chipping Sparrows Scarlet tangers Summer tangers purple finches Black capped chickadees Brown headed Nutthatch Black Capped Nutthatch Pine Warblers Brown thrashers
I see Indigo Buntings in the pasture but they seem pretty secretive Downy Wood peckers Piliated wood peckers Wood Thrushes in the woods and of course crows, blue jays and Redtailed hawks

Oddest bird I’ve ever seen. Must be some type of extinct flightless pterodactyl, neighbor up the road has been feeding it. Seen a bluebird and a robin a little bit ago. Thunderstorms are passing through. Just got in from work.
