Today, March 18th, at College Creek Hawkwatch, there was a lot of bird
movement north across the James River. In addition to 9 Ospreys and 17 Turkey
Vultures, there were 3 American Kestrels. There has been only 1 Kestrel before
these
this season. Hundreds of Tree Swallows were streaming across the river, the
first good showing this season for that species and the gull movement was good
as well, with several hundred. Lesser numbers of American Goldfinches,
American Pipits and Fish Crows were noted. Two Rough-winged Swallows showed up,
the
first ones here this season.
