Tweets - Clear, sunny, and frigid. The sun really helped, though. The
wind, which picked up about 10:00am didn't. Still, it was a really nice day
to be out. Birdy too, especially at the beginning. A long dry spell in the
middle.

Highlights:

Green-winged Teal At least 16 at the Rowing Club
Green Heron One on far side of slough near start of
boardwalk
Cooper's Hawk Pair near windmill. Going to nest there???
Red-tailed Hawk Odd-snag nest occupied all day
PEREGRINE FALCON One sped past our cars as we were gathering
Wilson's Snipe At least a dozen below weir
Barn Owl Nesting in nest box after all
Anna's Hummingbird 4 males found
R.-breasted Sapsucker 2 near start of boardwalk (+drumming)
Hairy Woodpecker Pair near start of boardwalk
Tree Swallow One near Compost Piles
Varied Thrush At least 1 singing near mansion

Brian Bell had 2 TREE SWALLOWS last Friday. Grace and Ollie Oliver heard a
WESTERN SCREECH-OWL last Saturday.

For the day, 54 species. For the year, we're up to 86.
