Due to technical problems I just got back on tweeters (having to use AOL!)
Anyway I had a wonderful sunny day of bird watching +

(By the way - I was able to see the Norther Hawk Owl on Monday 2/3 at EWU!!
It was still there and seemed to be right at home admidst all the student
bustle.)

On another subject - pine siskins. Compared to last year there have been very
