This guy was away from the rest of the group, there was a pine tree with 15-20 perched in the tree. I took a photo with about 8 in the frame, then I stopped and counted them all :)

They tend to roost in a tree along the sewer trunk at WTP.

No but will provide some after this weekend Mark a few of us are going out this weekend so there will be somebody to take photos of the full kit on the tripod. Makes it a bit hard with only one camera body.
