Deb, Tom Egan and I made a quick run to the coast today to see what was
around. We had a pretty good day! We visited Harris Neck, Andrews Island
causeway and the Altamaha WMA. The day list was 87 species, which wasn't
bad considering we had very few migrants. Here are the highlights from
today's birding;
