We also encountered a two freshwater mussels (plain pocketbook
[Lampsilis caridum, and fat mucket [L. siliquoidea]), and Miller
enjoyed chasing a cricket frog (Acris crepitans). We had such a good
time, that I did not have a chance to glass for birds (the only bird
I saw was a turkey vulture [Cathartes aura]). I believe that Sajjad
is working on a web page of our outing, and, with any luck, should be
able to view soon. Thanks to all that went. Bernadette, Miller and
I had a good time, and hopefully another outing can happen soon with
more people able to join us. Please let me know if you have any
questions.
