Good company, pleasant weather and abundant birds made a great evening.  Young birders came along too. The annual plant exchange offered wildflowers, vegetables, garden plants, and a few unusual specimens.  Thanks to Nancy Howell for leading the bird walk, to Tom Romito for a charcoal fire for cooking, and to Rich Kassouf and Mary Anne Romito for keeping the bird list.
