Five NVBC members joined Len Alfredson and myself this morning to bird Sky
Meadows State Park. The rain had stopped by 8.30 am and eventually some of us
wished we had brought our sunscreen. Nothing out of the ordinary (except the
total absence of any vocalizing American Crows), but 43 species seen/heard by
the
group (with a couple of others seen/heard by me immediately thereafter).
'Sparrows' were disappointing for the location.
