Thanks to the Avid Birders, a compilation of the year's birds seen in Franklin County is on the Columbus Audubon site at http://www.columbusaudubon.org/production/index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=777&Itemid=238 wherein you will find that we've found 270 species so far this year---not enough to rival Dan & Doreene, but not bad. We should get a few more, and your help is more than welcome. The overall bird species list for the county now stands at 337, with a couple of possible additions. Rivals are welcome....... Thanks to all who helped, Bill Whan ______________________________________________________________________ Ohio-birds mailing list, a service of the Ohio Ornithological Society.
