Cool and thanks for sharing John :) it's funny how the 4th link down the pic of the map looks sort of like a bird :winkextra:
Oh and you have some awesome pic's there mate :good:
What a wonderful report and accompanying photos.! Thanks for sharing John.!
I was fortunate to visit many parks on my trips to the U.S. and was always impressed by how well planned each and everyone was.!! This would surely be a bird lovers paradise and a wonderful opportunity to get that award winning photo.!! :ok:
Well I expect some AWESOME pic's from your next visit Robster :)
If the dollar heads up again I might just do that A.J.:angel:
I wish I had brought my binoculars. There were a lot of good birds, in flocks no less.
