We've saw a few Swainson's Thrushes at Jester Park Campground #6 today. They were between the road and the drop-off to the lake. And we saw one on Tuesday off of trail 23-24.

I noticed this Spring that there was a new sign "Campground #6" where I could've swore used to be campground #4. And "Campground #4" is now elsewhere. On the Jester Park map, what used to be Campground #6 no longer has any designation. I'm not sure what the old campground #6 is or should be called nor how these get relabeled on eBird.

Just wanted to say that the location I noted here is the new Campground #6.

Got that? ;)
