Hi Hendrik & all,
Sorry, I can't resist picking up on that subject heading, though it's
hard to think of an ... um, tasteful reply.
But this is just about the same time of year when a birder reportedly
had a different kind of four-gulp morning at the Philomath sewage ponds,
while chasing after a rare storm-petrel ...

Happy springtime birding -- April's on its way!

Hello all,
A large flock of swallows swirling over the Philomath Sewage Ponds today
contained about 70 TREE, 10 VIOLET-GREEN, 4 BARN and at least one early
CLIFF SWALLOW.
Other than that, it was business as usual at the ponds, with no discernible
turnover detected among the ducks.
Happy Spring Migration
Hendrik
