Raining hard this morning during the field trip to Starrigavan. Luckily the birds aren't as sensitive as the people. Introduced mallards, great blue herons, herring and glaucous winged gulls, black turnstones and hooded mergansers.
Students also had a look at Menziesia ferruginea, Oplopanax horridus, Carex lyngbyei and Elymus glaucus.

Weather is better today, only cloudy. Two pine siskins by the business office. Wilson's Warblers and Chestnut backed chickadees flitting through the alders outside of the computer lab.
