Another quiet day at the watch - mostly due to fabulous sunny weather. Highlights today - one Peregrine Falcon and one Merlin + Sora, Marsh Wren, Ruby-thr. Hummingbird, 3 Rusty Blackbirds and a pipit
btw did anyone find a men's dark blue rain jacket at Cranberry last week? I believe I left mine on the railing at the viewing platform last Wednesday.
