[cayugabirds-l] Holiday robins
Christmas morning gifts---About three to four dozen ROBINS blanketing our yard. Hard to count because they are everywhere and moving around constantly. At least one E. BLUEBIRD in with them, looking overwhelmed. Our best wishes to all of you.

[cayugabirds-l] Holiday Shrike
For the past hour I've been enjoying great views of a NORTHERN SHRIKE flying around fields and hedgerows along Boiceville Road in Brooktondale. I was on foot but the bird is easily visible from the road.

[cayugabirds-l] 9996 species
Today I downloaded the Clements excel file of species. I removed all the subspecies and groups and came up with 9996 species. How close am I to the complete list as defined by Clements. I realize other authorities list different numbers, but want to know if my reduction of the excel file was accurate.
