Species List For State Meeting At Gulf Shores, Alabama, April 13-15, 1973

Published in 1973

One hundred eighty-one (181) species of birds were seen at the ADS Spring Meeting at Gulf Shores April 13,14,15, 1973 (area in Baldwin County South of County Road 12). Considering the early date and beautiful weather, we were generally pleased with the variety, if not abundance, of bird life. Many people were happy with the number of Least Bitterns and both species of Gallinules that were seen. All are invited back any time to beautiful Baldwin County. A complete species list follows with notations by those of special interest.
