I joined Lorraine Novinski, Rochana Muenthongchin, Janet Terchek and Bill Drummond for the first three hours of the Ramsey CBC this morning.

We hit the Ramsey Country Club lake early, plus a lot of suburban streets.

Lots of Red-bellieds and Blue Jays, a nice perched Turkey Vulture and (thanks to Lorraine's spotting scope) seven distant Eastern Bluebirds.

Bad news: A lack of open water kept duck counts down.

(Thanks to all for letting me tag along.)
