Just curious if anyone has ever participated in the Great Backyard Bird Count. I did it a couple of years ago, but this year I work on all the count days. I'm hoping I can take a little time during my lunch break and maybe a little after work.

I do. It's a great way to spend some time and help out at the same time. I've been doing it for 6 years now. I always sit with my camera because I'll usually see something unusual. The 1st year, I saw a one-legged Starling. Last year, a Merlin. Haven't seen either before or since.

Hurray! Dave!

I just submitted one but I'm not through yet. I will do more "counts" before it's all over. I always have fun doing this.
