Checklist Comments

8.2mi trail run from Lake Craig boat launch up and around Lake Johnson on Foster Mill and Edwin Johnson Trails, looping back south along logging road to Croft horse stables. Plus a few minutes at end standing around boat launch before leaving. Distance corrected for a small about of backtracking.

Note that all birding was by ear while running, with lower than normal observational detectability compared to standard birding/walking. Numbers of most flagged species are not truly unusual for this timing, especially considering the suboptimally long checklist distance.

40-48f, sunny and calm. Clear.
