Hello All,
Today was a good day at Derby Hill. It was the third day of the
season with over 1,000 counted. Todays total was 1,006. Over 700
were Turkey Vultures and 100 were Red-tailed Hawks. One nice
highlight for Red-tailed Hawks and the day was a Dark Morph, Western
bird that went by in the afternoon. Last year on April 1st we had a
Dark Morph Western Red-tailed Hawk go by. So it was kind of neat to
see another one just about a year later. Only off by one day.
We also had several Common Loons fly over. Then late in the day a
Glaucous Gull went by right along the bluff. Anyways to see the
totals and the write up check my blog out at:
