Thanks, that was fun.
It can't be cold there, you have song sparrows.

We are going for a snow challenge tonight.

Another list reader here and I are headed into a good snow storm
tonight to record those Great Gray Owls that Barb sent us from Canada.
 We are going to a field where larger numbers than most anyone could
believe are been observed together.  Last time I was in the
neighborhood there were so many owls that a great gray was sharing the
same tree with a northern hawk owl and I found a black colored Great Gray.

Enjoy your spring for those seeing it.  We feel we are just starting
to enjoy winter.
