We did our monthly Tower Day on Saturday, April 2nd. We ended up with 48 species, compared to 61 last year when it was 78 degrees for a high and only 47 degrees for a high this year. There were 19 different species that we had in 2010 that we didn't have this year and 9 different species this year that we didn't have in 2010. It's fun to look back and see what species are being seen or not being seen and what the weather conditions were. Here are the birds we seen.
