On Wednesday, April 17, Shane Roberts, Sandy Tkach, and I conducted the
monthly survey route on Kelleys Island. This is the 16th year for the
April survey. Our 16 year average is 68 species and 4787 individuals.
This year we recorded 74 species and 5097 individuals, both above average.
The 74 species is our second highest number of species with 2011's 77
species top. A Louisiana Waterthrush observed along Titus Road was a first
for the April survey and a first for any monthly survey on the island.
Over the last 16 years we have observed 122 species on the April survey.
