That's awesome; I didn't know they were entirely funded through donations. It's really amazing what they're able to do with what they have. I'll certainly...

Great shots Jeremy - Our retention pond loon near the development is gone - hopefully headed north - I wonder how long the ones at Burke Lake will stay? Should...
