Subject: [Tweeters] Does Anna Love Canadians More?

> Just received my American Birds digest of the 110th Christmas Bird Count.
> Browsing the British Columbia section. there was a snippet about Anna's
> Hummingbird.On January 21 st of this year I posted the record CBC totals for
> ANHU in Washington State - 778 birds, of which 337 were recorded on the
> Seattle count alone. The totals were, of course, a record and one that would
> be hard to beat, I thought.
> However BC reported a total of 1074 birds, from likely fewer counts than here,
> with a massive 556 on the Victoria count alone! So what is it fellers, is it
> the water or the nectar? I know Victoria has a mildish climate, but are those
> folks better gardeners? Are the hotel rates lower in the off-season?
> Oh and I like Scrub Jays too - just find me one in Discovery Park please!
