birds and other wildlife

[whynotkay]

I'll be shocked if anyone finds this interesting, but here's a list of all the species I saw while birding (or at least the ones we managed to identify).  It's mostly here in case I ever take up birdwatching, in which case I can add these to my "life list".  :)
