what a blustery day, today. total numbers were low, but a couple birds of
interest kept things lively. Hunting the bean field at ~930 was a light-morph
female Rough-legged hawk, that wandered south then drifted back north about 45
min. later. At about 1400, a non-adult, light-morph Swainson's hawk cruised
south over the bean field. I'd be curious if anyone knows the late date for
this bird in these parts. Also, it seemed that not a minute passed all day
when at least two Bald eagles weren't in the sky.
