Plodding along...
12. Pileated Woodpecker
13. American Goldfinch - last seen in November, I don't think I've gone so long without seeing one before.
14. Northern Shrike. Whizzed through the garden, past the Barred Owl, which seems to have taken up residence! No complaints from me.

Just one addition today, but a good one it was.
26. Common Raven (f)
is still an uncommon species in the area, but is increasing rapidly. I had my first yard record just a few years ago. I would say that I average fewer than five sightings a year from the yard.
We have had some bitter cold weather, with a recent night dropping close to -20C (-4F). There are about 10cm of snow on the ground, but this should melt with next week's forecast of rain and 12C (54F)!

Looks like I'm "neck and neck" with Jasperpatch. :t:
#14. Goosander - 3 fly over when I was making snow works about an hour ago.
Speaking of snow: I think we have broken the garden snow record today. I don't remember we had had this much snow on those 10 winters what we have own this house. According to official sources here is about 50 cm, but the wind has put some places much more than that.
Amy, how much you have snow in Quebec? Are we "neck and neck" with that also? :-O
