Shep -; When is the actual trip? Is there any space left? I'd be very interested!

Siwash Creek was good for Sharp-tailed Grouse, Northern Pygmy Owl, and all the usual highlands birds. Nealy Road Feeder, Highlands Meadows, was great for photographing Mountain Chickadee. On Bartoff/Meyers Road we found a small flock of Pine Grosbeaks foraging buds from a Larch Tree. Mary Ann Creek was slow but fantastic looks of Ruffed Grouse.
