hi Peter
We had a friendly and enthusiastic group yesterday. We didn't come up with any real rarities but did see a nice variety of birds. Thanks to all and especially Dennis for co-ordinating.
Here are my eBird lists from our trip (thanks to Mira for getting it started). Anybody who wants me to share an eBird list with (and I haven't already done so) should let me know.
