[Birdtalk] GSLA trip report.

[Dave Hanscom]

Thanks mostly to Carl's and Jeff Bilsky's keen (young) eyes and ears, we 
were able to find the Pygmy Nuthatch and Winter Wren.  I never could have 
done it myself.  Nor could I have figured out the Thayer's Gull (a lifer 
for me) without their help.

Definitely a great morning of birding!   :-)
