Domestic engineering challenges kept me away from regular birding venues like
Shelby Forest State Park and Eagle Lake WMA today, but I did manage some time
on the lower deck with the Sunday newspaper and the latest edition of
"BirdWatcher's Digest". The waterfall and mister were particular attractants
today.
