  Eight DNCBers met at Joe Brown Park in Surrey – Jacquie, Lee, Dottie, Bob, John, Glen, Lorna, Terry. Several very active Yellow-rumped Warblers entertained us right at the beginning of the path.  Most of them seemed to have the yellow throat of the Audubon’s population.  Along the way to the equestrian area we saw Black-capped
