Re: McClellanville CBC



Dear Christmas birders,

Alas, the 2100 Tree swallows contained no identifiable
Cave or other swallow species. I almost got a case of "warbler neck" as I
looked up at the swirling flocks that were overhead most of the day,
affording some good
looks. Our Tibwin party gave it a good try, but we dipped out.

Happy Birthday Carolinabirds, thanks Will!
I owe at least 5 South Carolina lifers to the list.
