Not terribly bad, but not as good as recently. Apparently low water keeps the bird population down, so we need some rain.<\/p>\n<p>I did manage to find a few decent birds, especially Terns and Goldfinches. I&#8217;ll keep an eye on the weather and try again when we&#8217;ve had some rain.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/hughvandervoort.com\/?attachment_id=39504\" rel=\"attachment wp-att-39504\"><img
