[va-bird] Good day for north

[LMarkoff <canyon.eagle@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

Good Morning VAbirders,

It must be a good day for north today, at least if you are a Ring-billed 
Gull.  As the light came up this morning, working at the kitchen sink with 
eyes to the sky thru the window, it soon became apparent that Ring-billeds 
were on the move.  Instead of the half dozen or so I've seen each morning 
for several weeks, this morning I saw an on-going parade of gulls, some in 
V formation, heading north.  By the time I made myself stop watching I had 
counted 101.

An added bonus, 2 Tundra Swans and 4 probable Green-winged Teal.  Watching 
all those lucky birds, I wanted to run outside and spread my wings and 
start migrating.  But, me?  I wouldn't go north, I'd go southwest, you betcha!

Enjoy the beautiful day and the beautiful birds!
