House sparrow) but I had six that carol didn't have .

FOX SPARROW 1
EASTERN TOWHEE 3
Grackle 100+
HERMIT THRUSH 1
GOLDEN CROWNED KINGLET 1
Harry Woodpecker 2

.

The Hermit Thrush has been in the "yard" for at least three weeks now,
seen eating bitter sweet berries, and seen getting a drink from the
water hole in our pond around the aerator. I think that makes 36 yard
birds already this year, the best being the Hermit Thrush, an Eastern
Phoebe, and a Winter Wren. [...]45_14Feb200719:36:[log in to unmask]

Holmes County, near Walnut Creek:

Leroy Troyer and I added to the list of those who've seen the Harris' Sparrow
as noted above.  We were there about 4:30, unfortunately unable to get
pictures.  It's a very striking individual indeed, and the owner of the property is
still very happy to welcome birders inside for a look.

In addition, the farm of Andy Troyer (Cutter Road, just outside
Fredericksburg, south of Wooster):

     - about 150 Horned Lark
     - 3 Lapland Longspur
     - 1 Snow Bunting (Mr. Troyer has been seeing up to 3 at a time)

Likewise a very accommodating property owner.

Thanks to Leroy and to those who shared their birds with us--3 life-listers
in one, REALLY cold and windy day!
