Good (foggy) morning,

Yesterday between about 10AM and 12 noon I sat on the deck watching the skies, looking for (hopefully) my FOS Osprey. While I did not get an Osprey, there was considerable other raptor activity. At one time I had 5 Red-shouldered Hawks in binocular view at one time directly over the deck, calling, circling, swooping at each other, etc. At other times I saw individuals fly by low over the neighbors woods, offering great views in the full sun. There were also Red-tailed Hawks flying about, with a pair also giving great views, legs daggling, pair-bonding.

I also had one individual Sharp-shinned Hawk fly over, heading NE, and just at noon, an adult Bald Eagle flew right over the deck, heading NE, and circling back to the SE before heading away. This bird was pretty low so gave great looks too.

Today, well, back to March weather...
