INBU 19  New high count for fall (old rec 18). Most fall high counts are in 
Jul when we still have singing males and family groups. Previous late fall 
highest count was 12 on 10/6/2002.

As usual with this kind of weather following a front, lots of birds and we 
missed most of them. Still a very good day for 10/8. Giff
