Kurt,

Although not all the results are in, it seems that the day was slow and
there were no unusual species.  Many usual species were not found and
the total number of species was lower than normal.  There were a few
species flocked in higher than normal numbers.  Most notable was a field
with an estimated 300 Eastern Meadowlarks in my sector, Point-No-Point.

I had an adult Northern Goshawk at my house for a few minutes on 12-19,
but we had no accipiters (to be even briefly excited about) in my sector
on the CBC which includes my home.  So far no Cooper's Hawks were
reported on the entire count.

I can give more details when I get results from the compiler if you are
still interested.

Good Birding,
