We still have as many species in Broome County NY but in my opinion, many less birds than normal.

Here is the link to the U.S. Fish & Wildlife site with a link to the pdf for Birds of Conservation Concern 2021 Migratory Bird Program. The report has 269 species of conservation concern for 2021. Not a bad read oar skim. https://www.fws.gov/birds/management/managed-species/birds-of-conservation-concern.php
If it were not for starlings, grackles, and house sparrows I imagine my feeders would not require as much filling. Very few if none of my usual species. The neighborhood trend is to cut the trees, grow the green lawn, and spray the chemicals.

Thanks for sending this.
I noted many bords arriving much lated this year. We did have poor wind conditions for migration here in the Northeast. The birds rely on South winds for migrations. We had these winds early but later in migration the winds turned to Northwest for many days. The late migrants showed up after the winds were again from the South.
