Red Crossbill update and CMBO Cape May Point walk

This was emailed to me from Damon Noe. "The red crossbill is still hanging around.
Many sightings today."

Also a note from Karl Lukens about yesterdays CMBO Cape May Point walk.

"We encountered some rain on this morning's walk at Cape May Point State Park, but also encountered a nice variety of ducks, numerous Yellow-rumped Warblers as well as Palms. Shore birds have been scarce, but we did find 4 Pectoral Sandpipers and 1 Semi-palmated Plover in the second "Plover Pond"."

61 species, not bad for a rainy-ish day in Cape May!
