What the records say about Neuville

Neuville is backyard-bird country: 71% of the records here are small songbirds, doves, woodpeckers and the other birds that come to feeders and yard trees. Black-capped Chickadee, American Crow, American Goldfinch and Song Sparrow make up the core of what you can expect at a feeder.
23 birds of prey are on record nearby, including Turkey Vulture and Bald Eagle.
Records peak in May and are lowest in January — about 20.2 times as many in the busiest month. Part of that is birds (migrants and breeding arrivals), part is people: more birders are out in good weather, so treat the curve as activity, not a census.
Pont-Rouge, 7 mi to the north-west, has fewer species on record (225 against 274). Birds logged far more often around Neuville than there include Northern Cardinal, Pied-billed Grebe, Gray Catbird and Gadwall.
