Missy and I enjoyed an unusually birdie day yesterday on the “lower west end” of our eBird patch, west of Glenwood to Eagle Island SP.
Dark and gloomy skies for much of the day, but the birds caused us repeated smiles. =)
Only entry to hit an eBird filter was our count of Hooded Mergs
Good boid’n,
Larry
