MY BACK YARD LIST

LOCATED IN LEWISTON, MAINE, 35 MILES NORTH OF PORTLAND. ZONE 4
Now with photos and back yard description!

New species added 10/28/98: American Tree Sparrow.

A new log of my back yard bird activity has begun.

PLEASE NOTE
Our house was bought by developers in 2002, and we moved out in August. Our backyard habitat exists no more. However, our new home, just a quarter mile away, holds much promise and will soon be a bird haven to rival our old place. Our new yard list is already quite impressive. As time permits I'll post photos and descriptions along with the new list.
