Howdy All!

Aside from the good pelagic species that will be added on the upcoming
trips, we should be on the lookout for a few other species being
reported around us:

***Purple Gallinule - seen in Missouri, Illinois, Indiana, Ohio,
Virginia, and the Carolinas within the past 3 wks

***White Ibis - scattered rpts as far away as New Mexico (ok...well.  it
is the *wrong* direction, but...I was just dreaming)

***Swallow-tailed Kite - several scattered rpts; one in Massachusetts
this week

***Painted Bunting - one in Massachusetts this week; several in the
Great Lakes within the last 2 wks

Looks like La Nina is serving up an odd summer...
