One special
aspect of living in the Dam
House is watching the wildlife throughout the year. The picture above
shows a bluebird and 2 of the cedar waxwings that came to eat multiflora
rose hips one January. We keep track of the
birds and animals we see each month. Between 1996 and September of 2003,
we recorded the following 101 bird species: |
