Sorry for the last abbreviated message.

The stilt updates are coming in fast & furiously. 3 chicks Saturday morning
by Dave Whiting and by noon, Marge Weninger reported 4 babies running
around. This matches the # of eggs that were seen earlier, so this will be
the end of the counting.

It will be interesting now to watch the growth of these little ankle
peckers. Let's hope that they all fly safely later this summer. This should
be around July 7-15.

Yahoo !! History has been made.
