You, my dear, are allowed to total these guys. Whatever I put in the book
at Snickers ain't right.
I find the low number of accipiters peculiar. Can you believe only ONE
SHARPIE?
Ye gods. Only 2 Coops. If it were only low Sharpie numbers I'd say it was
my eyes, but Coops are good-sized fellas and didn't see them either. Really
strange. Besides, Jen's eyes are better than mine!! Anyhow it was the day'
of the Harrier - 3 Grey Ghosts!!!! Don't know where the eagles/goshawks,
Swainsons, roughlegs are -
I think I'll have to rest my eyes manana - it may be a good day, and I may
be able to do an hour or so, but don't count on it. What in the name of
thunder (see, I am a lady!) did you do to your back?
