The adult Bald Eagle and 4 Common Mergansers were the only birds seen 
below the Wilder Dam in late morning today.  In Norwich's Hemlock Ridge 
development were 35+ American Robins feeding on apples and a flock of 24 
juncos.

All Upper Valley birders are encouraged to attend tomorrow's Vermont 
2011 County Birding Quest wrap-up and celebration from 2-4:30 pm at the 
Montshire Museum.  Whether or not you actively participated in the Quest 
http://www.vtecostudies.org/quest/, come meet other birders from all 
corners of the state, hear about the final 2011 results and highlights, 
and share some birding camaraderie, and enjoy refreshments.  The 2012 
Quest is already off and running, so this is a good chance to catch the 
buzz and get involved.

We hope to see many of you there.

Chris
