I saw a flock of about 1 000 European starlings at Corkum's Island today.  =
They went up all in one group and one either hit a power pole or the wires =
and plummeted from the sky.  I watched it twitch for awhile and after some =
time it eventually righted itself and walked around a bit before taking to =
the air again. =20

David Walmark and I had a yellow-billed cuckoo=2C which flew up from where =
the Little Blue Heron had been in the spring at Oakland.  The bird flew acr=
oss the road in front of the car as we were driving by.
