Les & Luther take me birding

When Les invited me to join him & Luther on a trip to Carlos Avery, of course I jumped at the chance.
It was a great day to be out - temp. in the 70s, light clouds, and a nice breeze. The only disappointment for me was that the Bank Swallows I wrote about May 27 appear to have left their nesting site. The only cause I can think of is the heavy rains last week which may have washed away some of the nesting cavities. Otherwise it was a great day with a number of firsts for me -- (see the next entry).
