Hi San Diego Birders,  
     First of all,  thanks and mucho kudos to SD Audubon and Jen Haj  and SDAS staff and leaders  for a REMARKABLE  job throughout this climate-challenged Bird Festival.  Just amazing what you folks did!  I joined some trips this year and attended the festival with my visiting cousin from MN and we had a great time, with the staff even relocating my cousin’s cell phone after she lost it, for which we were so grateful!  
     But my specific question is:  Has anyone noticed that the YBLO seems a little emaciated this past week compared to what it was when first found? It seems like it is skinnier and may not be getting enough food.  Has anyone else noticed this?   It seemed alot skinnier to me since the day after it was first found.    Sue
