Greetings All:
I had a wonderful day out there and would like to thank a few people.
First and foremost a big shout out to Ross Rickett! He woke me up at 6:05 AM
and gently let me in on the fact that it was actually 7:05 AM and that we were
supposed to be on the road five minutes ago (I am not a big fan of these
savings time transitions and I think this dislike drives me, subconsciously, to
miss as many as possible), drove us out to Muleshoe NWR and down to Cochran
County, walked with me for many a mile, listened to all my b----ing about
daylight savings time, and found some wonderful birds with me. He even let me
have a morning stop for coffee despite the fact that we were, thanks to me,
running an hour late:)
A big thank you to Peter Keyel for finding a fantastic gull back in Lubbock, to
Cameron Carver for keeping us in the loop - even when he had to break the sad
news that the bird had left Guy Park, and to Steve Collins for tracking it to
its new lair.
As drought-stricken as our region is at this point, it takes a village to have
a great day of birding ... and we've got a pretty good village up Lubbock way.
