Checklist Comments

Sun was down and it was getting dark. Full moon rising and temperatures were dropping into the low 30's. Massive gull flock came into roost at Collins Pond. Photos taken were mostly bad due to limited light. When I left it seemed there were still flocks coming in. Canada Geese were arriving for night as I departed
