Reid State Park, February 2, 2008
What a super day to be at Reid in the sun & wind, overlooking the high
surf on the rocks & beach. We enjoyed seeing the large variety of birds plus the many birders who ventured out this morning
after the Friday rain storm. The purple sandpipers were still flying around the rocks off the main parking lot when we were
leaving at noon. Submitted by Carol Jack.
