The yard list here, over the past 19 years and 11 months, has reached 165 species! That has included Great Egret, Golden Eagle, Broad-winged Hawk, Rough-legged Hawk, Sora, Sandhill Crane, Whimbrel, Caspian Tern, Short-eared Owl, nesting Barn Owls, Black-chinned and Calliope Hummingbird, Lewis's Woodpecker, Dusky Flycatcher, Say's Phoebe, California Scrub Jay, Bohemian Waxwing, Brown Thrasher, Black-throated Sparrow, Brewer's Sparrow, Clay-colored Sparrow, Harris's Sparrow, Rose-breasted Grosbeak, Yellow-headed Blackbird, Common Grackle, Pine Grosbeak, Cassin's Finch, and Common Redpoll. Not bad for 1.49 acres halfway between Sedro-Woolley and Concrete.</div><div dir="ltr"><br></div><div dir="ltr">Somehow, we never did get a Mountain Bluebird or a Mountain Chickadee here.
