Erik,
How exciting for you. Your Mom sent this to me as she knew I like bird watching and am always interested in your adventures.

Pam and I are planning on stopping at Hawks Ridge this next Tuesday or Wednesday so I hope you are working so we can visit.

That was the most spectacular bird ever!!! My family and I enjoyed the day at the ridge so very much, all in thanks to you and the hard workers there. You make the experience worth the 3 hour drive, I can't wait until next year, unless I can talk someone into going with me one last time this year. Fingers crossed.
We also made it to the Wis. point, where we saw a boneparts gull, which was a lifer for me. What a great day of birding, thanks again, keep up the great work, and good luck next spring on your new adventure!
