Sunday morning I spent birdwatching with local birders, Jim Barry and Ernie Spanhauer for the annual Christmas Bird Count. We saw 31 different species in 5 hours. Highlights included a Northern Shrike, a flock of Snow Buntings, several White-Winged Crossbills, and an American Kestrel.

Haha...I don't know if there's any sarcasm in those remarks but it actually WAS very relaxing. The 30+ volunteers saw 75 bird species that morning.
