Hi Peter,
We had a very enthusiastic group on our "extra" Thursday walk today.
Thanks to Karen, we could accommodate about 20 people for the walk.

We had 74 species, with a good mix of warblers, raptors and ducks.

Highlights: Black-capped Chickadee!!! first one many of us have seen for several years. In the same vein: Brown Creeper, both nuthatches, House and Purple Finches; flyover Siskins; 14 species of warblers, Gadwall, Wigeon, Merlin, American Kestrel, Karen had flyover Monk Parakeets.

Here's the list.
Next week maybe???

Best regards,
Tom
