Great weather for migrant birds. A steady wind from the south. They can cross the Gulf of Mexico with a tail-wind all the way and not even be tired when they get here. They can just keep on flying. Most of these birds migrate at night. If they're already here, they can leave the next night on favorable winds. So, great for the little migrating birds but not so great for we people with binoculars that want to watch them! Not very many birds around today. That said, two new year-birds.
Dickcissel.
Cape May Warbler.
Count total, 364!
And flowers, just because.
