Hi all:
With the brisk WSW wind, the swallow conveyor has restarted, with Bank, Barn, 
and Cliff going by at a rate of, now, >75/minute, all heading into the wind.  
I've tallied 66 Eastern Kingbirds in less than an hour, also moving into the 
wind.  Finally, I've already seen more warblers flying by the tower (9 Yellows) 
than I saw on any single day last fall.  And it's not yet 9 am!  Just one local 
raptor (a Broad-wing) so far.
