A Great Day!!! Our Photography Workshop with Alan Murphy was a great success. Thank you Alan! And the birds! Wow. They just kept coming and coming. All those raptors plus a beautiful male Vermillion Flycatcher along the fence row and a Red-breasted Nuthatch in the north oak motte. It just doesn’t get much better than this day at the Point.
