Hola Birders,
Today the season ended. The wether wasn't great, but it was a pretty day for
sure! There were a few suprises including an Oriole heard by Bill Williams in
the early morning light. Pine Siskins made a solid comback. I had 18, more
than we've heard/seen in the past two weeks combined! Also there were nice
flocks of American Pipits zip'n by. A few hawks even tried to move in the
glassy calm conditinos of the day. Yesterday was a great day though. We saw
an awesome Vulture movement along with 2 Northern Goshawks! Sweet. Here's the
break down for today followed by Season totals:
BLVU: 26; 962
TUVU: 50; 3,821
OSPR: 0; 1715
BAEA: 3; 197

Well, it certainly wasn't the biggest season Kiptopeke has seen but it sure was
fun!
Buenas Noches
