Hike with some bird watching. Saw, and photographed(!), a pine warbler (my NY birder friend says it's not a yellow warbler). Also saw a pair of mergansers and (I think) a bufflehead, along with lots of folks fishing and some other hikers. Low 60s and mostly sunny.

Orienteering race (Score O) 2:30:17 **** 8.95 km (16:48 / km) +296m 14:25 / km
ahr:126 max:179 spiked:15/15c shoes: 2017 Inov8 ArcticClaw 300
Schock's Rocks Score-O on DVOA's Governor Dick* map near Mt Gretna. Day started ~53 and overcast/breezy and while still cool, the sun had come out, at least partially, by the time we left.
37 control points were scattered across the map, with #points matching the control number. Course designer Sam Kolins had cleared it in 16.7 km (2222 pts).
I did a clockwise loop, starting across the road for three controls (64-43-85) before heading back to the road and 82. I was at 82 at a half hour.
At this point I chose not to go up the hill to 56 and 44 but headed to 62. Skipped 42 and went to 52-61-72-49-51. I wanted to try for #50 (and its 153 points) and did well finding it, though on heading back up to the trail on the ridge I ended up near #51 again (oops). Picked up 41-32-37-31 on the way into finish, for a total of 915 points.
I was happy and undamaged when I finished, and that's good enough for me today.
Sandy was first and Julie second female--big props to them for beating some of the younger women on the course! Wyatt was overall winner, clearing the course. Well done!!
...........
Analysis:
Getting one more control would have put me ahead of Julie**. Getting 56 and 44 (or 44 and 42) would have put me ahead of Sandy and I probably would have had time to do so. But coulda-woulda-shoulda doesn't get you anything. ;-) I tend not to strategize well when I'm doing a Score-O or mini-Rogaine on my own.
*Clarence Schock Memorial Park and portion of adjoining State Game Lands 145
**Julie opted to visit 56+44+42+33 giving her 21 more points than the 153 pts I got from #50. And it was likely physically easier than dipping 13 contours down the hill to 50 and back up again.
