Notes: There was a big movement of TOWNSEND'S WARBLERS this
morning. The number given were those I had in sight at once.
There were quite a few more warblers that I could hear or were
backlit. The RUFOUS HUMMINGBIRD was a very cooperative hatch-
year female that was actively flycatching from an open perch.

Mike Patterson When I despair, I remember
Astoria, OR that all through history
celata at pacifier.com the way of truth and love have always won.
There have been tyrants, and murderers,
and for a time they can seem invincible,
but in the end they always fall.
Think of it...always.
