Peter,

20 birders met at the Pergola on an overcast day were 64 species were observed. Highlights were Purple Finch spotted by Dan Smith, Peregrine Falcon spotted by John Dean and some fun migrants including 2 flyover common loon and a siege of five migrating great blue heron. Fantastic group of birders.

Best,

Dennis
