Early this morning I made a quick visit to the Rouge. It appears there is only
1 egret left. There were many great blue herons. The great blues took turns
forcing the egret to leave if it got too close. Yesterday there was an immature
black crowned night heron but it was no where to be found today. Two
kingfishers performed wonderful shows over the marsh but caught no fish. I saw
no migrating song birds at all but there was 1 lonely hummingbird. As usual at
this time of year there were many monarchs. At the far side of the pond was a
flock of small ducks which could have been blue wing teals (no scope). The
highlight for me was to watch several migrating osprey slowly move from east to
west. The usual gulls, common tern, cormorants and geese.

Directions: take the Port Union cut off from the 401, go south to Lawrence, go
east on Lawrence til the road ends and follow the roadway down the hill and you

Weather:
Today brought another clear sunny day and little or no cloud cover. Winds
were light to moderate southeast.
Raptor Observations:
The flight built steadily during the morning, remaining so through the
afternoon and into early evening. Much of the movement was to the north,
quite predictably given the wind direction but there were plenty of birds
overhead as well. This was the first day with well-organized Broad-wing
kettles ranging in size from a couple dozen to a couple hundred birds.
Also highlighting the day was a decent early season showing of falcons,
particularly one very cooperative Peregrine that flew low over the
onlookers at the watch.
Non-raptor Observations:
Also of note today was what has become an annual occurrence of an
Olive-sided Flycatcher on the snag west of the count area just off the
boatersÂ’ parking lot.
