Nantucket shines during the Christmas Bird Count

With the final tallies for Truro, Nantucket, and Martha’s Vineyard now in, the 122nd Christmas Bird Count season has come to a close. With little land area and few productive ponds, my Truro count is the little count that could, but the island counts are typically part of a Clash of the Titans each year, vying for top species count honors with the Cape and Mid-Cape Counts.
