Hi all:
=20
Well there's the expression for those who have heard of it "that even Homer=
nods sometimes." This was the case with me as field trip leader. With ro=
ughly 25 years of leading field trips it was a first for me. I usually dou=
ble check the start time of my outings. Well for some reason a combination=
of multiple factors=2C I did not double check the start time for this fiel=
d trip and I had it in my head that it started at 08:30. So I arrived at w=
hat I thought was the correct time. In reality my field trip started at 08=
:00=2C so my appologies to all who attended if I have not emailed you perso=
nally. =20
=20
The field trip was on July 26 and was attended by 10 individuals. We had a=
nice sunny day and had a decent list at the end of the day. Everyone did =
not get to see all species or hear some that we did not observe.=20

A tentative list of birds were as follows: Please feel free to list any th=
at I might have missed.
