Mike Newhouse Bird-a-Day Update

Double-crested cormorant
On Jan. 1, Meadowlands Commission Naturalist Mike Newhouse set out to see a different bird species a day.

He sent us his latest list late last week, when he had reached 119 days in a row.

We thought we'd share this list here, since he saw so many of the birds while on the job in the Meadowlands.

Full list follows.
