Hi Jim -- Oh great! Just as we are getting ready to bail for Colrado,-- well, not that we didn't TRY (went down Friday as you know, and looked every- where we could). That would be a new bird for Barry (and a new state bird ofcou rse for me!) I got the impression from MDosprey that not many people went down over the weekend to look for the Loon? Did you hear of any? That's too bad -- based on my experience with the one Y-B Loon I've seen (near Seattle) the bird was often not around, about 25% of the birders who looked actually saw it. I got lucky, drove up and it was there! Hope it shows up again and at least some folks get to see it --will be anxiously scanning MDosprey when I return! Cheers, Gail Mackiernan Silver Spring, MD
