Hi Peter,

We had a slow, cold, wet start to migration today.  Two brave souls joined me, Kathy and Rob.  We hung in there for almost 4 hours, but eventually we were too wet and cold to go on, esp with only 2 warbler species seen.  Hopefully Thursday walk will fare better.  Besides Rob's list below, i also had the following on the way out.  I'll be in CA for the next 10 days (Rob covering for me) so i'm sure lots of good stuff will be showing up while i'm away ;-)

2 Great Black-back gulls
