Birding this morning along the corps dike in Two Rivers County Park (See
DeLorme page 39, 8-C & site guide published in Washington Birder Vol. 6, No.
1) I encountered a nice selection of migrating warblers including lots of
ORANGE-CROWNED WARBLERS and lesser numbers of YELLOW WARBLERS, YELLOW-RUMPED
WARBLERS, TOWNSEND'S WARBLERS & MacGILLIVRAY'S WARBLERS. Also found a
couple of WHITE-CROWNED SPARROWS - have been hearing them around since the
beginning of the week but hadn't had time to look for them until now. At
the far northwest corner of the park I scanned the BPA powerline tower and
discovered an adult PEREGRINE FALCON.

The reason we do not deserve, as a matter of right, the benefits that
flow from the exercise of our talents is
that we cannot take credit for those talents in the first place. That a
market society values the skills some
people happen to have is their good fortune, not a measure of their moral
merit. We should not regard the
bounty and prestige the market bestows on them as a reward for superior
virtue.
