The Sequim-Dungeness Xmas Count will be held on Monday, December 18.
We would again like to have the highest count in WA. This is something
that only can be done with the help from talent from outside our immediate
area. We hope all the regular birders will join in the count again and we
have room for more. Contact Bob Boekelheide at bboek at olympus.net or call him
at (360) 681-4867.
If you are wondering why I am sending this message, the answer probably
is that a surge protector is more protective than a power strip. He is at
least temporarily off line due to a power outage spike here in the far
corner of the lower 48. I was also online when the spike occurred but
nothing disastrous happened. He has reloaded most of his software but has
not yet been able to contact his internet provider.
