Hi all, Tomorrow looks like it could be an excellent day to be outside and looking for birds.
With south winds overnight tonight continuing through the day tomorrow, many newly arrived migrant birds should be touching down in our area, as well as passing overhead all day. To give a good idea of what species of birds might be arriving this week, check out the BirdCast migration forecast: http://birdcast.info/forecast/regional-migration-forecast-27-march-3-april-2015/<http://birdcast.info/forecast/regional-migration-forecast-27-march-3-april-2015/#MidwestNortheast>. Phoebes should be back in some numbers in the next couple days, Tree Swallows could be seen near water or flying overhead on their way northward, and Osprey are also returning. If you have one day to get outside and go birding in the next few, tomorrow could be a good choice. Of course, there are no guarantees when birds are involved, but the weather conditions tomorrow are primed for some good birding, and you don’t know what is there until you look! While you’re headed out to see what has arrived over the next couple days, it is a great time to check out a nearby Avicache location! Observers who went Avicaching this past weekend saw some uncommon species at a couple locations, highlighted by a Cackling Goose.
