This afternoon I was in the right place at the right time, thanks to
noisy Chickadees who cued me in to all the other activity going on. Just
before 5 pm, after walking the dogs in our woods, I spent about 40-45
minutes watching and trying to identify quite a group of migrants
feeding and
I watched for migrants on the tower side of Mt. Pleasant from 1245 till 1515
(starting just as sky began to clear). Wind = NW (strongish)
Monarch butterfly = 5
Canada geese = 66 (3 flocks)
Sharp-shinned Hawk = 3
Bald eagle = 1 (adult)
Kestrel = 2
Peregrine falcon = 1 (juv.)
