I encounter a large tick outbreak at the Boardwalk area. I think it was on
the trail west of the metal bridge. Take care especially with your pups.

Good news on tracking the distance traveled when using the eBird Mobile
App. The traveling protocol was not to count distances that were traveled
twice. The App now excludes repeated terrane traveled.
