This afternoon there were more birders than birds.
Thought I would need a shuttle bus due to limited parking ;-)
Photographers occupied much of the front row :-(
I was shoved around by a 15-mounth-old girl trying to get an "Oldsquaw" as a 
lifer !

The vulture roost appeared to be mostly Turkey Vultures.  Many Black Vultures 
present.

Let's go birding......
