I never anticipated another good flight of raptors today but we still had another very good day considering it is so late in the season for Broad-wings to be migrating. Counters today were Debbie & Roi Shannon, Cynthia Wilkerson, Lenny, Lee Anne and Jodi Kafka and myself. Debbie is blessed with exceptional eye sight and can spot specks that Roi and I have to wait a good five more minutes to get focused on. And, she can correctly identify them from that distance. Amazing! Totals were: BW - 402 SS - 13 CH - 1 BE - 1 (Adult) OS - 2 RS - 1 ------ 420 Today's totals bring our Broad-wing numbers to a new ten year season high of 5035.
