2017 Great Backyard Bird Count

Ridgetop Farm and Garden | 2017 Great Backyard Bird Count | GBBC

Another year, another Great Backyard Bird Count.

Typically I do a combination of counting birds in public areas, as well as around our home. This year I only counted birds near our house. Everyday I pretty much saw the same species of birds. A number of them were the same birds that have been around awhile. But, the Golden-crowned Kinglet, Black-capped Chickadees, and Hairy Woodpecker were welcome visitors.

The birds I saw this year were:

Lately I haven’t been out birding as much as I would like, so this was a great opportunity to get out and enjoy it.
