Although I'm an ornithologist and birder obviously because I consider birds
of great interest, I nevertheless think that people are more interesting
still. I would love to know how many people in WA and OR (and elsewhere?)
deserted their jobs for a day to go see the Ross' Gull at McNary Dam. And,
of that list, how many told their employers/bosses the real reason for
missing work.

As a person pretty much tied to Tacoma while I'm teaching (what? me
envious?), I only hope it stays there into the weekend.....
