Joe Roller Green Big year update

[Scott Somershoe]

All,

I finally got a few blog posts up. They may be a little rough around the edges, but that's how I'm feeling these days chasing birds in the 90 degree F heat. Ha!

My green big year total is now 247 species with picking up a sweet Caspian Tern in the blazing heat at Chatfield on Monday afternoon. Joe may have told me to not chase that one. But I did, I got it, and it was awesome.

Don't forget, you can pledge or donate at the link. It's never too late! Pledges and donations keep me motivated and inspired to keep getting up early and riding somewhere to bird or taking off in the blazing heat for a hot bird.

I hope you enjoy the stories as much as I did writing them.
