Macro trends? What??!!? Haha. I will get to that in a moment. It’s been a month since I last posted here. Sorry. In that month I drove from Colorado to Virginia for the Eastern Shore Birding Festival. I had a great time in Cape Charles, VA. I drove home to Ohio and worked for a week and then headed back south to North Carolina’s Outer Banks for the Wings Over Water Festival. It was a terrific week packed full of fun events and lots of birding. I worked last week and my schedule finally caught up with me. I was down a couple days with a cold. Ok. I still have a cold but I’m functional…sort of. When I finish this week I will drive to Massachusetts for Athol Bird and Nature Club meeting and some New England winter birds.
