Here in Fairfield, CT, I have a great location, close to the Mill River, near Long Island Sound, therefore getting a good mix of sea/water birds and feeder birds. Not bad for a novice birder. Yesterday we saw a nice group of 11 Great Egrets.
Other common sightings include:
Mourning Dove
House Sparrow (nesting in the eaves)
American Goldfinch
Brown-Headed Cowbird
Common Grackle
Red-Winged Blackbird
Northern Cardinal
Dark-Eyed Junco
Cedar Waxwing
European Starling
