Lots and lots of birds moving today with 17 species of waterfowl and 7
species of gulls.  The birds really didn't start moving until after 8:30 and
then they just poured through.  I had to quit at 10:00, but when I got back
at 11:30 the birds were still moving.  I'll have another post about that.

The feeders were OK.  The fox and chipping sparrows were here as well as a
single siskin, but no crossbills today.
