Migration is moving along slowly but it is moving

Yesterday we found Horned Grebe, Wood Ducks, Hooded Mergansers, N. Goshawk, Sharp-shinned Hawk, many Song Sparrows, White-throated Sparrows, Carolina Wrens ( residents ) Brown Creeper, Pine Siskins, Golden-crowned Kinglets, Long-eared Owl, dozens of Cormorants heading towards The Spit, and the usual suspects to be found down there.

 It should pick up after next weeks rains. Watch for southerly winds after northerlies and rain.

Birding takes my mind off stuff and it adds good life to a tuff life. It also helps me forget about my spine pain and stress.  Laugh, eat, be merry.  Anybody with extra $ may send me some as It will permit me to travel.
