Good walk today with 7 of us in total seeing 55 species of birds, (56 really but I didn't see the Prairre Warbler.)

We got the previously reported Summer Tanager and a second one as well in the Vale of Cashmere. They were in a large Tulip Tree with several Rose-breasted Grosbeaks and several Baltimore Orioles. It was busy in spots, very good on Lookout Hill's west slope.
