I was out looking for moths when heard a couple of calls. One was Green heron and the other was a thrush, call was rather too faint. So came iI n to check on NOAA. Wind is currently from north and there seem to be a some good reflection just above Geneva. Don't know if it is due to migrants. Tomorrow might be a good day as there would be north - northwest wind.
In the evening I did see a squawking Green Heron fly overhead in northerly direction when I was in my driveway, may be it was the same one heading south later today. Around 7.15 PM a Merlin flew along Honness Lane calling loudly. Near East Hill plaza the Kestrel pair were doing some kind of display and calling over equestrian center. On an errand to Highland road, I came across a Turkey and her brood of some 18+ teenagers. During todays; SSW lunch walk, A watched a Pileated Woodpecker loudly announcing his presence by drumming on a dead branch! Now back to moths!
