Birders,

Ryan Tomlinson and I spent Saturday night, all of Sunday and Monday morning
camping in the S. Okanagan, in BC. We camped at Okanagan Falls Campground,
where there are a few good birds right in the site! The weather was alright,
for the most part, but chilly at night and breezy during the day. We had
many good birds! Capitilized birds are rare; birds preceeded by (*) were
year birds for me!
