The following are the results for the NAMC on 5/12/07. The areas we covered were Castellow Hammock early morning and then Larry & Penny Thompson Park, followed by the Metro Zoo. In spite of the haze (which seemed to get worse mid-day!),we didn't have any difficulty observing in each area. Alot of walking and counting many more Collared Doves than I ever wish to see! But it was still exciting and a great excuse to bird all day!
