Two Christmas Bird Counts over the weekend seem to have taken everything out of me. I spent the whole of Monday feeling tired and dehydrated. Birding days are so relaxing as I focus on the birds so much that work does not enter my head. But I need to accept the fact that I am an office dweller and 10 hours spent on my feet out-of-doors will have an effect on me. Perhaps two days in a row is just too much for my aging body! Although Monday was not a birding day, I drove a longer route home to add two species seen from the car to my year's list. I ended the day with 66 species for the year.
