More Birds Times Three

Thanks to Wiki for photo

Saw these today and the past few days: Eastern Meadowlark, Goldfinch, Turkey Vulture, Cooper's Hawk, Green-Violet ear Hummingbird, Tree Swallow, and a House Finch.

Heard a Mourning Dove but could not see it. Also hear a Barred Owl, but could not see it.

I have seen many more and varied types of birds, but cannot list them all at this moment.

For a list of Iowa birds, check this out.

I kept a bird diary for 35 years or so, which includes most of the birds on that list, plus others I saw in other states and in England.

All the ones I mentioned above I saw from my windows.
