May 10, 2008 - May Bird Count Results
Submitted by Harlow
Bielefeldt, Corresponding Secretary
This is the e-Bird report for the Goss Bird Club Spring Count last
weekend. Thirty birders covered the areas designated in the Christmas Count
map and then elsewhere in the county.
At the Tally Dinner that evening 29 members and guests reported 133 species.
Not bad for a cool cloudy day that apparently lay between migrant waves.
Many migrants were seen only once or twice by observers.
Highlights were the early morning abundance of gaudy Baltimore Orioles, a
lone Cerulean Warbler at Lapham Peak and Whip-poor-will in the Southern
Kettle Moraine.
Location: Waukesha County, WI, US

Count Results In
the table below are results from the last three years of the Waukesha CBC.
The 2006 results can be found in first column.
The count was affected by the absence of snow
cover, lots of open water and the mild temps. The Rusty Blackbird was a good
find. Waterfowl were more numerous. Typical roadside passerines were
present in reduced numbers.
