Lake Park birders,

Just a heads up, there are a lot of large trees and limbs down in Locust
Ravine in Lake Park. I assume the other ravines are in similar
shape. I
would recommend staying out of the ravines until the park people have a
chance to remove the damage. I saw a large pine tree that had been
uprooted
and is leaning against another tree, and a very large limb that has
snapped
off a big tree that is caught in another tree's branches. It just
doesn't
look safe down there.
