Today I looked out back (from in house) occasionally between 3:00 - 5:00, 
but then took my scope out and went for a walk from 5-6:20.  The area was 
absent of high bird numbers most of today, but it was not lacking in diversity, 
especially late this afternoon.  I had 3 FOY birds (BW Teal; RB Merganser; 
NRW Swallow).  62 species
