[JPMOYLE18@xxxxxxx]

I have not had much time for birds at a critical time of the year.  However, 
I have been volunteering in the newly opened Gray Fossil Site/Museum as a tour 
leader and lab worker.  The visitor numbers have been huge!  The first 
weekend had over 3000 visitors.  This past Saturday was about 500 - 700.  It is 
a 
great place and I highly recommend at least one visit.  However, I have been 
checking birds here when I am able, they include:  Cedar Waxwing ( 3 days of 8 
or 
9 birds), Veery on 9/1, female Indigo Bunting three days, 5 turkeys every 
day, Screech Owl calling on 9/2 and 9/11, Ruby-throated Hummingbird up to 4 
birds 
each day, Chimney Swifts from 3 - 13 each day, Common Nighthawk on 9/4 (4) 
and 9/8 (3), Brown Thrasher most days,  2 Ravens on 9/9, 3 Wood Ducks on 9/8, 
Belted Kingfisher on 9/7, Yellow-throated Vireo on 9/10, and Pileated 
Woodpecker 
7 days.  This ignores the everyday feeder and fly-over birds.  John Moyle
