The birds and birders were undeterred by this morning's teeming rain. The Tundra Swan is still playing "Find the Different Swan" in the second plover pond, the Red-winged Blackbirds are perched up and singing. A couple of female Hooded Mergansers had their "hair" all slicked down by the rain and the Purple Martins - last week perched atop the empty martin house poles - now have the (newly replaced) martin houses to sit on. Leaders: Kathy Horn & Kyle Chelius.
