Big Day field trip!!


I led one of the Big Day field trips at the Biggest Week in American Birding today. 
We were fortunate to have good weather and the birding turned out pretty decent! 





Our first stop at Oak Openings Metropark gave us a good start to the morning. Tufted Titmice, Bluebirds, a few warblers, a flyby Broad-winged Hawk, and a Yellow-billed Cuckoo!! 



The stream at Oak Openings usually provides some good warblers. Today, it was a Hooded, singing his alternate song.

Pearson Metropark is always a beautiful walk and good birding. The window on wildlife feeders are always fun and the mature deciduous forest is always a nice walk.

We finished up the day with a run to Metzger Marsh where we saw this Sora!

Our total ended with 126 for the day which was enough to win the friendy competition between the two Big Day buses and was an awesome day for us! 
We ended with a bus load of happy people! 

Just another day in the life of a tour leader at the biggest festival in the country!

This is how my friend Wesley Virgin's tale begins with this SHOCKING and controversial VIDEO.

You see, Wesley was in the army-and soon after leaving-he revealed hidden, "self mind control" secrets that the government and others used to get everything they want.

THESE are the EXACT same SECRETS many famous people (especially those who "became famous out of nowhere") and the greatest business people used to become rich and famous.

You probably know that you use only 10% of your brain.

That's really because the majority of your brain's power is UNTAPPED.

Maybe that conversation has even taken place IN YOUR own head... as it did in my good friend Wesley Virgin's head about 7 years ago, while driving a non-registered, beat-up bucket of a car without a license and with $3 on his bank card.

"I'm absolutely frustrated with living paycheck to paycheck! Why can't I become successful?"

You've been a part of those those types of questions, ain't it so?

Your success story is going to start. All you have to do is in YOURSELF.
