The following counts reflect the species seen by three observers between 8:15am and 10:30am on 1/27/2001 over about 2.5 miles (yellow and orange trails). Weather was cloudy with occasional snow flakes. Temperature was about 35 F. Winds were mostly calm but built during the period. I have affixed a tilde when the count is approximate due to hearing identification, possible recount, or difficulty in counting accurately (such as the Kinglets!).
