Subject: [NatureNS] Update to the Blake Maybank Winter Bird List (197), =
the DOWL is on

The Depth of Winter List (DOWL) starts today. It is a subset of the WBL =
where we track February birds and while we are not be getting hit with =
the Polar Vortex as much as the interior of the continent, it is bad =
enough and must be making life pretty miserable, if not shorter, for =
many birds. =20

=20

Our DOWL average is 148 species. We finished January at 197 species =
which is 4 less than last year but 3 more than the year prior. 197 was =
also our total for the WBL in 2015.

=20

eBird lags a bit so it will likely be a day or two before I get the =
first DOWL update out but I see Ken MacAulay just posted he still has a =
Red-bellied Woodpecker coming to his feeder so let=E2=80=99s crown it as =
the first species on the DOWL.
