Team Notes
Participants: Helen, Bill, Anne, Darryl, Lawrene, Bethany, Lynn, Neal
Weather: Clear and windy
Location: Trump (No Relation) Estates, Dayton, Ohio
Time At Location: 24 hours
Notes:
We saw three types of thrushes eating from the dogwood trees! We had three red-breasted nuthatches on the same spruce tree. Early morning brought three Cooper's hawks and a sharp-shinned engaging one another, with a broad-winged hawk bringing up the rear.
A trio of sparring red-breasted nuthatches delighted the group.
At one point a merlin on the wing cleared the skies.
Anecdotes:
As the cold front descended mid-sit, our campfire became more appreciated. The Kentucky Burgoo -- two types! -- and quinoa salad kept us warm. We found much to discuss and much to laugh about, because THAT'S HOW THE DUDLEY DOWRIGHTS ROLL.
