Migration seems to be quite slow on The Islands but we did find 6 Cackling Geese together on the harbour side of Ward’s Island between the corner of Channel Island and First St. And the Eastern Gap concrete.
Other new birds between the ferry dock and the Snake Island bridge were a Double-crested Cormorant flying past over the harbour off the dock and a Ruby-crowned Kinglet and a Hermit Thrush just east of the Snake Island Bridge. Maybe the next few days migration will pick up but if the weather stays as forecast (don’t bet the farm on that happening) then Friday looks like the best day.
