My trip was great! I hope I don't disappoint the birding purists with my short
list, however. Sue, I followed your road, but did not encounter Veery there.
I did however come into very close contact with a young male deer, about a
six-pointer. I actually saw six deer all told on the mountain and not one of
them further away than 25 feet or so! oh yeah, the list: Dark-eyed Junco,
White-breasted Nuthatch, Hairy Woodpecker, American Goldfinch, and Common
Raven. The weather turned wet very fast, first the low-bellied clouds, then
the rain came slanting and spattering through the canopy, then the wet turned
to a persistent, balled fog that continously rolled and churned on a fierce
east wind. Short list but long, rewarding hike!
