Hi Tweets:
I tried to send this to Tweets yesterday, but I don't think it was posted to the
list. Here is my msg again. Sorry if it's a repeat.

Hi Tweets:
This morning, Thurs, Oct 23 in Des Moines there were many Robins flying around and
acting drunk.
Lots of berries and fruits to eat. We didn't see any robins for awhile there in
September.
In one tree today, Oct 23, I saw 16 Cedar Waxwings, and a few Yellow-rumped Warblers,
Audubon's
race. Some warblers were dark and dull, but one had quite a bit of yellow on it.
This afternoon, 10-23-08 at about 3:30 I drove past Boeing Ponds, and it looked
quiet. But in
the weedy field across the street there were over 250 Cackling Geese. I saw a few
Greater Wht-fronted Geese hunkered down in the weeds, so I drove around to the back
of the field, and walked up on the berm. In the back of the field I counted 15
Greater Wht-fronted Geese, and one SNOW GOOSE.
