I was pleased to see a Bald Eagle on Lake Appert in the Celery Farm on Saturday, but Joyce Delaney of Park Ridge took the cake when it comes to seeing great birds during this weekend's Great Backyard Bird Count.

Let me know if you can top that.
By the way, American Woodcocks are the topic of the talk at the next Fyke meeting on Friday. Free and open to all!
These are amazing birds.
