Woodhouse CBC

For people that aren't familiar with the Woodhouse CBC, it is located in Norfolk County and includes Simcoe, Townsend, Waterford and Port Dover. My area doesn't include any water so we don't really rack up species but we usually find a few goodies. Highlights for our area were Pileated Woodpecker, 80 American Pipits, and Northern Shrike.

I didn't stay for the entire wrap-up but the count usually ends up in the mid 70's to low 80's depending on the year.

Sounds like the best bird for the count was a probable Varied Thrush found near Port Dover with a flock of robins. Several people, including myself, will be looking for this bird tomorrow so I'll post to ontbirds if it's relocated.
