"It was a dark and stormy night....." Would aptly describe the beginning of tonight's Nummy's Island walk. Black skies, howling winds and driving rain but luckily it blew through quickly and we were able to enjoy a rather pleasant evening. We had good looks at many Ospreys, a pair of Tricolored Herons and a Clapper Rail (a life bird for one of us). Leaders: Warren Cairo, Gail Dwyer, Shaun Bamford, and Bill & Lee Smythe.
