I just got home after completing the second and final tour for the WOS Conference in Spokane. To those of you who came along it was great meeting you. For the many of you who I only knew by name from this list and finally met it was great meeting you as well.
In spite of the rain it has been a great bird week at the Little Pend Oreille National Wildlife Refuge. Since the first of June we have seen the following 105 species. Most of these we saw on at least one of the two trips. Those that were not but seen on the refuge at some other time this week are marked with an *. For those of you on the field trips this only includes species here on the refuge. It does not include species we saw between LPO and Spokane. Those would add at least another half dozen or so for the trip list.
