[CT Birds] FW: 133 species reported to date in CT during 2008

[David Provencher]

Updated with Adrian & Beth Nichols Short-eared Owl:

133 species reported in CT so far for 2008. Some missing species that are
certainly in CT but not actually reported yet  this year (unless I missed
it, a real possibility) include; King Eider, Northern Harrier, Ruddy
Turnstone, Lesser Black-backed Gull, Winter Wren, and Eastern Meadowlark. Oh
ya, there is no doubt that somewhere in CT there are more Bohemian Waxwings!
