Observers: Sunday morning birders ( fourteen of us)
Weather: Foggy, drizzle, rain, about 10º C

Highlights: It was rain gear and gumboot time with frequent wipings of scopes and binoculars. But we had great looks at the Bald Eagles, Northern Harriers, Northern Shrikes, a Peregrine Falcon and the brilliant yellow-breasted Western Meadowlark and that made it all worthwhile!
