A decent day until after 1 pm, then no more raptors. I also had a 
Yellow-throated Warbler feeding in the bushes next to the building. The last 
raptor today was the second Merlin of the season. I have attached 2 photos of 
the first Broad-winged Hawk I saw on Saturday. I was fumbling with the carrying 
case or I would have had a much closer photo.
