Norm: Checked you hit list. Why don't you join Gene Scarpulla and I one weekend day at Conowingo in late December? Iceland Gull is likely, Glaucous reasonable, and Winter Wren is a mortal lock. Oldsquaw, Thayer's Gull, and Black-headed are possibilities. I suspect Evening Grosbeak will be a snap also. Gene and I are there at least one day every weekend. I'll keep posting the results so you will know what has shown up. Rick "It's not a bad idea to get in the habit of writing down one's thoughts. It saves having to bother anyone with them."
