I didn't see the Long-tailed Jaeger this morning at Pueblo Reservoir when I looked for it for about a half an hour. The only terns still around were two Forster's Tern. I spent most of my time this morning, birding below Pueblo Reservoir dam. Best birds were a Tennessee Warbler, Red-headed

I was able to attend Mr. Temple's presentation two days ago at 'Birds in Art' art exhibition in Wausau, WI (which I have artwork in) and Mr. Temple's talk was both interesting and entertaining. I give it a thumbs up and recommend attending if you are able.br/br/Cathy Sheeterbr/Auroraa
