2010 YARDLIST CHALLENGE
Compiled by Lisa Hardy
Here are the results of the 2010
Yardlist Challenge. Nine yards reported 2010 lists,
for a total of 112 species. Highlights include Sandhill
Crane (Hanson), Northern Saw-whet Owl (Sturts,Buchler),
Western Bluebird (Moen), Common Nighthawk (Sheridan, Ward), Vaux’s Swift
(Ward), Bohemian Waxwing (Zagar, Ward), and Wilson’s
Warbler (Callen, Ward). While four yards reported Steller's
Jay (Hanson, Moen, Ward, Waring), Ward was the only one
to spot a Blue Jay, Prairie Falcon (Buchler), Red-naped
Sapsucker (Buchler)
A few more statistics: 26
species were reported from only a single yard, and only 2 species (Red-breasted
Nuthatch and Dark-eyed Junco) were reported from all nine yards.
A big thank-you to all
reporters. Remember that the "challenge" is a personal one - to jot
down a few notes from time-to-time on the world going on outside your door.
