Diamond Dove
Maryfarms (north of Mt. Molloy)
Over 200 present. Previously reported from this location when 130+ were present but this observation is quite significant as it is at the eastern limit of their range and such a large number. Up until this year sightings in the area were confined to one or two birds every few years.
