A Big Year - March Update
Whew, March was a birdful month! A trip to Harris Neck NWR and Piedmont NWR netting some great finds and I even got a couple of lifers around the Atlanta area.
All told I got 27 new birds for the year and six lifers!
I’m over halfway to my goal of 200 birds for the year. I have a feeling things are going to start slowing down, though, as these last 90 birds are going to be tougher to come by.
