Good sample of Newfoundland birds and landscapes. Good response to bad weather: travel and museum periods. Good picnic lunch fixings, and evening restaurants with local simple charm and cuisine (fish fresh). I would have preferred earlier dinners due to medical problem (GERD) when going to bed shortly after dinner. But early bedtime hour was needed due to early birding start the next day. (Not everyone in group had my problem.) I would have preferred a little more time on marine bird nesting colonies (one was in pouring, wind-driven rain), as I can see most of the upland species at home in Maine (although boreal chickadee and blackpoll are uncommon here). Overall, an excellent trip, and compatible group.
