Thanks again so much, Sue.  It is always fun and informative birding with
you, and we certainly had good looks at some of the loveliest birds out
there.  An added bonus for me was to finally make it all the way out onto
those trails.  Beautiful!  It was great to have Ron join us and it was nice
to see Brandon friends again. And you are so right -  seeing a Blackburnian
Warbler dancing in the branches just above one's head is a guaranteed way to
hook someone on birding.

Enjoy the rest of the day, and have great birding at Mt. Independence next
week.

Cheers,    Barbara
