Hey Ron, your first post about noon on Monday, April 20, came over Bristol Birds Net in fine fashion. But I did enjoy another doubtful comment about whether you "could still climb that mountain." :-) Wallace Coffey ---- Original Message ----- From: Harrington, R To: Bristol Bird Network Sent: April 22, 2150 09:19 Subject: [Bristol-Birds] Fw: Birding on Bill's Ridge I sent this out on April 20, but it got lost somewhere along the way.

They were both drumming away, interrupted only by chasing and fussing at each other. The elevation: approximately 4800 feet. We also heard at least four separate Barred Owls and saw a variety of warblers and vireos. Picked up two Broad-winged hawks and a Wild Turkey. Just wanted to see if I could still climb that mountain.
