Hi everyone,

I was up at my friends house last night and here is what I saw:

1 American Kestrel
6 Turkey Vultures
2 Red Tailed Hawks
8 Kildeer
6 Pigeons
1 Baltimore Oriole
25 Red Winged Black Birds
3 Adult Mallards M/F
6 Baby Mallards
20+ Barn/Tree Swallows
3 Canadian Geese
20 Starlings
10 House Sparrows
1 Unknown Woodpecker (Was not visible but we could hear it in the forest)

Sadly we found a dead adult female Pigeon near the Pigeon nests. Something got to it because the only remains were it's fur and pink feet.
