accepted, such as the black-and-white warbler, but the black swifts
and Iceland gull need more. I'll send a list of missing species in a
separate email. The weather on Saturday could be a problem because
rain is forecast in the lowlands and snow is possible at high
elevations in the San Gabriel Mountains. If you're thinking about
going into the mountains, Sunday sounds like a better bet. Thank you,
