Actually, Joe, I keep a "death list"...wild birds seen dead.
So, since I haven't considered this before..with KFC...if it were a free
ranging chicken, would it count?
Then we get to Thanksgiving turkeys...

IF the San Luis Valley introduced Whooping Cranes are countable, then I am
going to count a gallinaceous bird, Kentucky Fried Chicken.
Delicious.

I appreciate the sleuthing done by several people to answer the question
posed as to when California Condors visited Colorado's Grand Mesa. It was
August 1998 when 3 birds wandered up from the introduced Arizona Grand
Canyon group. Since reproduction was not documented among these birds,
including their cohorts, until about 2004, according to the new ABA listing
rules, they were not countable in 1998 when in CO, or anywhere else until
2004. Thus, they do NOT become our 499th species.
Countable or not, the moment that semi-tame condor walked in the door and
surprised a USFS employee working INSIDE the under-rennovation Land's End
VC, had to be one of the more memorable human facial expressions in the
history of Colorado birds.
