Grin to Win

So, here are some pics of our Muckrace team. First we have the Birdman demonstrating our team motto, "Grin to Win." We are the self-proclaimed team of FUN. I believe this hat that Dom made is what actually gives Chris his birding powers.
Next we have a shot of our team shirts, expertly done by Amy. I do believe the name was also her suggestion. In fact, I don't think we could have pulled the Muckrace off without Amy...thanks Amy (I had to say this or she said she would throw knives at me).

Lastly for now just a half group shot of Dom, Amy, and Chris "mottling" our team shirts. I was just reading a bird book tonight and it said not to wear white while birding. It was after Labor Day, so this is double taboo I guess.

I will post some more pics after I get them from Dick. We had a great time, again that you to all our sponsors, and for the record we had 70 bird species spotted. We beat one of the youth teams, but not the other. Hey, we did see 50% of the birds the winning team saw...does that sound any better?

Congrats on your great birding adventure. For your first event I think you did extremely well...now you have a record to beat next time...

Stick to listing the number of species seen instead of the teams you beat... :-)
