Cobirders, My brother Christof and I took a quick trip out to Last Chance, Neenoshe, Tempel Grove, Lamar Community College, Lake Hasty and Chico Basin Ranch from Sunday evening to Monday evening hoping to find migrants. We had a great trip and found a good variety (perhaps due to good karma from helping a motorist stranded 5 mi south of Last Chance having run out of gas).
