The wind started out ENE and switched to E but the birds kept coming. There lots of white pelicans and Sandhill Cranes. Linda Hoffman helped out today. Sadly two juvenile delinquent 14 year olds apparently stole all the money in the donation jar – at least $100. That’s the first time we’ve had that problem in 10 years! I guess it’s time to come up with a locking version of that jar. Very sad.
