Yesterday early run to Mapleton from Beauford:
Small ponds just east of Beauford and north CR10 the west pond pretty

I recieved a report of a single Varied Thrush from a resident in Britt
(36-60-18). It came in, with the snow storm, on April 11th. It has been

He has had Boreal Chicadees all winter, also. He wanted to document these
