Hi Tweeters,

At Ridgefield NWR this morning, there were 2 Black Terns feeding over Rest
Lake. I left them at about 8:25am. Other birds included American Bitterns,
Soras, Virginia Rails, and the usual cast of avian characters.

On Friday, I added two new year yard birds: one Barn Owl (#92) being
harrassed by Crows and a flyby flock of four Band-tailed Pigeons (#93) which
were the first ones since one flew by on September 1, 2005. There was also a
single migrant Lazuli Bunting and a migrant Savannah Sparrow.
