A bit of yard-watching on this glorious Saturday payed off when an adult GOLDEN EAGLE circled through my patch of sky, accompanied by a line of migrating TURKEY VULTURES. Other highlights were a single PINE SISKIN, sev. PURPLE FINCHES, a flock of GOLDEN-CROWNED KINGLETS, RUBY-CROWNED KINGLET, and WHITE-THROATED SPARROWS. A flock of RING-BILLED GULLS was circling high overhead for awhile, hawking aerial insects.
