Hello all,

We scouted N. F. Coppei with Fanter Lane and John Gatchet today - at the
"T" where Walker road meets Coppei - about 300 ft. on road to north and
up on the brushy hillside was a Red-eyed Vireo singing - also had great
looks at it.

Hard bird to get in WWCo. most years - #241 for the county yearlist.

Many neotropic migrants back but few resident mountain birds - like
chickadees, nuthatches, kinglets, finches.

WOS conference this weekend - and going to be the opposite of the COLD
weekend in 2008 for the last conference. Prepare for HOT.

Later, MerryLynn
