Raptor, as each year goes by, I more and more appreciate your "rules" for reporting species by specific location. Really increases awareness of the importance of habitat. Birds that I commonly see on my drive to work as I drive by or under the flyway between ponds or open meadows and farm fields, or wheeling above the parking lot at the strip mall less than 2 miles away are never or rarely seen in my yard. And it all comes down to habitat.
