I forgot to include 2 European starlings in my tally - can I still get a prize?

So far it looks like Floridamom and Froggyhed are our prize leaders, but interestingly enough neither one wants the first prize since they both already subscribe to Birds and Blooms! Lol! The subscription to Birds and Blooms is still up for grabs to whomever posts next!
