Jimıs second evening walk was nearly rained out, as was the first. With a
backdrop of storm clouds many of the sightings seemed theatrical ­
especially the Blue-Headed Vireo, and Caspian Terns. Additions for the day
included 1 Golden-crowned Kinglet, 1 Great Blue Heron and a Ovenbird. The
tide had come in and we missed the Seaside Sparrow.
