Howard Malone reports his GBBC observations here (anybody else want to post yours?):
I counted 37 on Friday and sent another on Sunday for 127 American Robins. The hay fields were covered with them.
(Thirty-seven was the number if BIRDS counted. The species total was 24.)
The Christmas Bird Count was January 5, 2008. Here's a summary so
that you can compare last year's list (below it) with this year's.
