I snuck out for a couple hours this afternoon to check the park and
ride area with Mary Jo Betts. Things were very active with 4
red-shoulders, red tail and kestrel. 
	The sparrows were in good numbers.

American Tree 18+ ( the majority were behind the sound barriers)
field         6
song          20-25
swamp         4
white throat  12
white crown   12 (3 were adults)

BTW it is VERY wet and hard to thrash through the cattails. Almost lost
Mary Jo in the muck! Pulled her out just in time :)
