Howdy!

A good birding friend and I have talked about this 117-questions-in-one question: If each county in our state had a totem pole with three birds on it... what would those birds be? An extra constraint we added - no birds can be on more than one totem! It seems like it would call for at least one specialty bird (if you want to see a __________, you really want to go to __________ county), and some combination of other birds that paint a good picture of the county.

Even without the no-shared-birds constraint, it would be interesting to hear what birds come to mind for different counties!

But ultimately, we may need to set up a mock draft for this...

Cheers!
