Nine of us enjoyed a great morning at Great Meadows NWR today seeing 35 species of birds http://ebird.org/ebird/view/checklist?subID=S10830729. Our best (hard to find) birds were Least Bittern, Pied-billed Grebe & Green Heron. We talked about using ebird "Alerts" to help find new birds. The highlight of the day for me was discovering that Zena, a highschool student, is already using ebird.org to keep track of her growing list of sightings. She's got sharp eyes and will have great lifetime records of her sightings.
Dave, generously, donated a butterfly net that I intend to keep in the electric truck along with
