Salt Marsh Nature Center--West

31 species on a hot summer morning (frankly, even I, a hot weather guy, am getting tired of summer) is acceptable. Not great, but with very close looks at American Oystercatchers and an Ovenbird hopping around in the woods, it was certainly a successful 2 mile trudge.
