Norm, I guess we should start making plans for the annual trek to Harford County. For those subscribers who were not subscribers to The Osprey's Nest, every winter, usually in late January, we have a field trip to see the birds at Conowingo Dam and vicinity. Some good birds of the past have been Painted Bunting and Harlequin Duck. And of course the Bald Eagles are usually trash birds. :) Then everyone comes over to my house for some chili and socializing. I prefer a Saturday since my daughter plays indoor soccer on Sunday afternoons but Sunday is OK if that is what is best for everyone else. January 31 is out because that is when we are having the winter count. So let the negotiations begin. Les -- Les Eastman les_eastman@netfox.net Havre de Grace, MD
