Hi all
A little catch-up on some sightings.  Here is Sat. trip to Big I. by myself 
and Rick Ferguson. As mentioned previously we we a little later getting ot 
the island after  we saw the dead Great Horned Owls on the TCH104.
Nothing spectacular, but nice to get a Northern  Shoveler with the ducks at 
the east end of the causeway.
There was a lot of boating activity and people on beaches and bars (sand!) 
so we missed some of the Gulls and terns which flew off before a count.
cheers
Ken
