Walk lasted between 12:00 and 13:57

 

This was a good walk in nice, 73F sunny weather. We observed 22 species, 1.8 above the prediction, so you could say we made par, and then some. The record of 27 was not threatened. There were no zero-probability birds observed. So, what stood out? I’d say the Cedar Waxwings for one and the three Townsend’s Warblers for another. Otherwise, pretty standard fare.
