I may be the last one to know this…. I just learned that our scheduled First Saturday Bird Walk leader for October 1st, Tom Jones, has moved to Missouri! We will miss Tom, his fabulous Monticello Bird Alert postings and his birding expertise in general. However, our fearless replacement FSBW leader for this month, Janet Paisley, will no doubt dazzle you with her spotting ability and find all the Ivy Creek birds to be had on Saturday. So, hope to see you there!
