My count of Tundra Swans was a single flock of 23, flying over Comstock Knoll
between 2:10-2:30 PM, headed SE. This is Area Vlll with a grand total of 122. I
think the 23 individuals in Area lV may be the same flock as they were headed
that way. Whoever counted those birds would know the time /
There was some discussion of potential multiple-counting of Tundra Swan flocks, but not a flock-by-flock analysis, and I don't think any adjustments were made among sectors at the compilation. Sector leaders may have tried to adjust among parties in their sector beforehand. I think it would be a go
ot do feeder lists during the CBC anymore ?

The other issue I’ve been wondering about is counts of migrating birds crossing
the count circle, in particular migrating swans this year. Perhaps this was
addressed at the compilation dinner, otherwise I suspect the 396 total that
Dave posted in his quick summary involves flocks being counted m

Thanks Kevin for this important clarification that will lift the spirits of
participants who trudged many hours on a snowy, blowy day.
Thanks to all of you who spent the last day of holidays counting birds
together. It is quite an amazing group effort and quite a wonderful bonding
experience.

Thanks for sharing this, Ken. Good sightings, Chris. But let's not forget the
importance of counting all of those boring Chickadees and Juncos and the
dedicated counters who contribute! Someone has to do it!

True, but species count is actually just a game and distraction from the value
