Steve Fast is helping me with my new roof, and he and I spent a couple of hours up on that roof this afternoon. More bird watching than roofing. But worth it. Somewhere around 1 pm we spotted a single GOLDEN EAGLE making its way slowly southward. Rather distant. Quite dark. At first we thought vulture, but there was no dihedral to its wings. It only flapped occasionally. At one point it was visited by a TV, and the eagle was larger.

We saw no other migrating birds in spite of a view covering some 20 miles east - west. We did have a local flock of a dozen TVs, a couple of Red-tails, and numerous Blue Jays transferring acorns.
