For the first time in history, it was an all-woman Hour on the Tower this morning.

Working in icy temperatures at the Warden's Watch, Gaby Schmitt, Julie McCall and Anne Keating Alfandre saw 14 species -- pretty awesome for a frozen lake this time in January.

As you can see from the photo, I really look up to all three.

(Congrats, Julie, Gaby, and Anne!)
