Migrating Hawks

 September 12, 2020 - The Coves

Yesterday was a very nice day, 18c and sunny.  The main event of the day was watching the Broad-winged Hawks high in the sky migrating.  They were in 'kettles' circling around high and some lower.  They were flying west. I got some photos of some flying overhead.  It was hard to tell how many as some were really high.....I counted around 60 but there were a lot more.  I also saw a Red-tailed Hawk and some Turkey Vultures.  Today, I saw a Cooper's Hawk.

I also saw a Northern Parula, Eastern Phoebe, Carolina Wrens, American Goldfinches, Downy Woodpeckers, lots of Blue Jays, a flyover Double-crested Cormorant, Song Sparrows, Northern Flickers and some Wood Ducks.

This new blog format is going to take some time to get use to!
