These lists are based upon surveys made by John Graham’s Biological Diversity (BIO 106) class and by John Graham himself. The class surveys were made during October (1996-1998) at Victory Lake and at the Main Campus. A pair of Bald Eagles began building a nest on the Main Campus in February 2012. This is an incomplete list, especially with respect to the smaller perching birds (warblers, vireos, and sparrows).
