Here is the list of the birds seen on yesterdays carpool to Collier County, led by Brian Rapoza. I typed up a long report and the trip list earlier this morning, but my computer froze a few species from the end of the trip list! I finally had the time to type up the list again, but not the report. I shall give a report tomorrow after school. Not such a bad thing to do it over, because I failed to add Blue-headed Vireo to the list.
