Backyard Birds
by Marvin Schwilling

Acknowledgment. I wish to thank Charles Nilon for starting the winter bird feeder survey and Ken Brunson for allowing the Kansas Department for Wildlife and Parks and the Kansas Ornithological Society to conduct the annual survey. Special thanks to the thousands of people who have been participants.

The Chickadee Checkoff has provided funding for the survey and thus the contributors of the checkoff also deserve special thanks.
