Hello All! I just want to echo Tom's call for birders for this weekend's jaunt along the scenic Northshore=2E The middle of October has been a traditional weekend for rarities--the adventures of one such weekend can be found in an old copy of 'The Loon' under the title 'The Ides of October'=2E Find it it's great reading=2E Searching for birds in all the nooks and crannies while enjoying our time with other birders--it just doesn't get any better than that! I hope to see you there! You can email your attendance to Tom and he and I would be happy to answer any questions you might have=2E
See you on Saturday=2E Until then=2E=2E=2EGood Birding!
