<p class="MsoNormal">I’m a bit behind but hope to have Russ Smith share the eBird list with all participants sometime this weekend. In the meantime …. Eighteen of us managed to escape the hot weather of the past few days and the JBLM Eagle’s Pride GC was relatively
mild to start with (65degF) but increased to 85degF by the time we finished this past Thursday. Migrants seemed to be coming through, and we had a couple of “hot” birding spots on our way around. The maintenance pond, which is near the driving range and surrounded
by willows and some cattails, was especially productive. Notable sightings today include the following:<o:p></o:p></p>
