MIME-version: 1.0 Content-type: text/plain; charset=Windows-1252 Content-transfer-encoding: 7BIT This morning Jo Solem, Emy Holdridge and I braved the rain. We were well rewarded with Howard County's first record of WHIMBREL. We had a line of 70 birds flyover. Luckily we picked up the flock from a distance and were able to observe them as they flew over us and continued north. (Toward Carroll County).
