We had a reasonable number today with 61 bird species and 7 people. Two
people were from out of town traveling through. The winds got up a little and
made finding things like Seaside Sparrow hard but we did have Nelson's
Sparrow early that did not give us great looks but we did see them. Also had a
hard time finding Clapper Rail but did find one. Next count date is March
19th.
