had to cut the watch short. We enjoyed an adult bald eagle that came into a nearby Norway Spruce and perched for 10-15 minutes in full view... The Watch runs through to October 6th, beginning at 5:30 each evening. Hope you can make it down if you are a fan of goatsuckers! John Turner

Last night we had a highly productive count with 237 nighthawks coming through. Typically, by early October the numbers start waning so the total for 10/1 was a large surprise. Will be curious to see how the weather over the next couple of days affects the count. John Turner -- NYSbirds-L
