Max Smith Birdwalk

Les and I went on a Birdwalk with Max Smith at Dawson Creek. It was perfect weather. I was able to go into areas I've never been in. Most in the group were looking for the Acorn Woodpeckers.  Max was a great guide. I would have missed the Downy Woodpecker if I hadn't been with the group. I was testing out my new eye. It was working pretty good.
I got one of Max's books. It's really very informative. Great pictures to help with id on some birds.
