Stepping Up for Lorrimer: The Full List

Gabrielle Schmitt writes:

After a cold, rainy Friday, we really lucked out with the weather for this year's Stepping Up for Lorrimer. And the grey, chilly morning that followed for Sunday's for Hour on the Tower certainly confirmed our good fortune.
 
There were lots of birds to see, hear and tally for our Big Day.
 
I thank all of you who walked the Celery Farm during your shift(s) and hope you had as much fun as I did. A special thanks to my fellow team members who helped me identify some of the many warblers we saw; it's always great to learn new species. What a magical place the Celery Farm is, with so many colors on the wing!
 
To those of you who have made per-bird pledges, the time has come to take out your checkbooks – I thank you in advance for your generosity. If you meant to make a pledge, it is not too late to support our fundraising effort. Please make your check out to Fyke Nature Association and mail it to PO Box 141, Ramsey NJ  07446.
 
Our total this year is 86 species; our combined list is as follows….  (Thanks, Gaby!)
