Last weekend's sightings of Short-eared Owl and Red-throated Loon now have the count up to 209, but this total is still 16 species short of what was reported last year. Below I've included a list of birds reported in 2001 but not so far this year. If you have 2002 sightings of any of these birds or any other bird missing from the Comp List, please let me know.
