Thursday avian report

[jhetley]

Flock of wild turkeys in a mowed field, 8-10 youngsters and at least one adult. Also, C-5, C-130, and KC-135 in the visitors' parking out at the base. Another tanker landed while I was taking my water stop, but I couldn't tell if it was local or visitor.

Normal late summer flora, lots of goldenrod and goats-beard and the damned purple loosestrife.

Rode across town and over the hills and back, much cooler weather. Did not die.
