The weather cooperated as far as the rain holding off but the wind picked up as the morning progressed. Birders started at Ship’s Point and made a few stops before ending the morning at the wrecks at Royston. Highlight of the day was finding the beach access with a newly built staircase leading to a beach at Ship’s Point.
