On Saturday, December 14, the 40th annual Walla Walla CBC was held under overcast skies with temperatures in the low 40's. Thirty-four observers saw a total of 77 species with an additional 2 species added during count week. We had the highest ever counts this year for gray partridge (32), Eurasian collared dove (195), hairy woodpecker (14), red-shafted flicker (283), raven (154), cedar waxwing (621) and fox sparrow (4). Hats off to MerryLynn Denny who spent untold hours organizing the count. We all appreciate her hard work and commitment to making this year's count a success.
