Bird Identification List
This is a list of bird species identified on the Medeiros properties on Richardson Avenue by Jean Shea. She has also heard a pileated woodpecker but has not seen it yet. Jean is an avid birder and a volunteer educator at Moose Hill Sanctuary.
Thanks to Jean for providing this list for us to use on our walks. As you see additional species, please email me at lkollett@mac.com, and I will add the names to the list. Any typos are my fault, not Jean's!
