Adair Countians are doing great job in Great Backyard Bird Count

Adair Countians are doing a great job. Columbia is now #2 in checklists, in Kentucky, behind Louisville, just ahead of the State's third principal city, Lexington, beginning the GBBC's 3rd Day.
Links to beautifulShamarie Claiborne, Pen, Tony Harvey, and other bird photographers of Adair County follow.

At 4:25amCT, Columbia, KY was 10 checklists behind the top locality in the State of Kentucky, Louisville, but only two checklists ahead of Lexington in the National Audubon Society and Cornell Ornithological Lab's Great Backyard Bird Count.

If you like birds, regardless of your knowledge of them we hope everybody in every family will take five to fifteen minutes or more if you enjoy the process, and count the species, once in the morning and/or once in the evening today, Sunday, February 17, 2008, and the last day of the GBBC, Monday, February 18, 2008. The process is a very simple 4-step one that anyone who can navigate ColumbiaMagazine.com will find a snap.



Forty-six species have been counted here. Apparently, no one has been to Arnold's Landing to count see and count an osprey. No barred owls or an other owl has yet been counted in Adair, and they are known to be here.
