Hi All:
Well, one can only hope for a repeat of a spectacular flight. We birdwatchers are
eternal optimists. My rational self knew that chances of a major BW flight 2 days
in a row was minimal, but the optimist in me really hoped. Grey and overcast
conditions today, and.....no Broadwings when I left at 10am. However, we had
another PEREGRINE at 9:30 am, have tallied PF now 3 days running. Also 14 SS and 3
Coops.
TREE and ROUGH-WING SWALLOWS continue to move through. FLICKERS are congregating,
10 in one snag as I walked to the point. My first SAPSUCKER of the season also.
Wish I knew all those warbler call notes; many leaving the point across the water.
With the overcast, they all looked like grey blobs.
