Sam and I joined ASCA for a field trip to the Ozark National Forest for a look at breeding warbler. We started at a spot a little east of Pelsor, then worked our way back down south along highway 7 stopping at Page Hollow and Granny Gap road. It was a hot sunny day and we were worn out by the end. Our total species count was rather low but we did get most of our target birds and Sam picked up several life birds.
