Re Birding Group Field Trip Report for Sunday, Bob referred to the first meeting led by Hywel. I took a photo of the group which is somewhere on my PC.
I am currently in Oklahoma, with a group of us from IBERS discussing energy crops. Colleagues reckon I devoured a 16oz t bone steak like a veloraptor. The security guards that pick us up in the morning have a sidearm. I look out from my room and see a lake with Canada Geese! But I have also seen red-winged blackbird (a favorite), great-tailed grackles, dark-eyed juncos, blue jay, eastern bluebird, male cardinal, killdeer, gt blue heron, American kestrel, eastern peewee, gt white egret and a stuffed roadrunner. No scissor-tailed flycatchers as yet. Back down to Texas end of the week and then some of us are joining others in Taiwan.
