Hi Peter,
Heydi's walk yesterday was a lot of fun. We had a full house with 12 participants (and a long wait list) and were rewarded w/ lots of good birds. Aviator is closed so we ate on the go. Everyone had a good time. i had to leave at 3 and missed the clay colord :-(
Here is the list from Heydi:
