Hey birders,
We believe that the last juvenile MIKI departed on Tuesday morning. We had a couple of days with only one bird being seen and have not seen one since. It was great to see all of you at the largest MOU in-person gathering for the year so far! J I was also asked by some of the visitors from the Twin Cities who came down to see the kites to share raptor sightings/highlights. Yesterday’s count was actually one of the highest in North America for the day. Turkey Vulture: 189 Osprey: 1 Bald Eagle: 40 Sharp-shinned Hawk: 6 Cooper’s Hawk: 10 Broad-winged Hawk: 667 Red-tailed Hawk: 4 American Kestrel: 1 Happy birding!
