While Atlasing in a few of my blocks this afternoon I found the following birds. Canada Goose Mallard Great Blue Heron Turkey Vulture Red-tailed Hawk Killdeer Ring-billed Gull Pigeon Mourning Dove Chimney Swift Ruby-throated Hummingbird Eastern Kingbird Blue Jay Crow Purple Martin Tree Swallow Northern Rough-winged Swallow Barn Swallow Carolina Chickadee Bluebird Wood Thrush Robin Catbird Mockingbird Common Starling Cedar Waxwing Common Yellowthroat Chat Towhee Chipping Sparrow Field Sparrow Grasshopper Sparrow Song Sparrow Cardinal Indigo Bunting Dickcissel Red-winged Blackbird E. Meadowlark Grackle Cowbird Orchard Oriole House Finch Goldfinch House Sparrow It was raining most of the time. The Grasshopper Sparrow and Dickcissel were in a portion of a housing development that has not yet been developed and grasses have taken over. The development is located in Mason.
