Thanks to alert spotting by my Able Avian Assistant, whom I'd taken outside, I saw an Osprey soaring overhead a few minutes ago. A much smaller raptor (a sharpie?) was circling even higher; presumably both birds were migrants. Earlier today a Bald Eagle went by, headed in the same southwesterly direction, and I heard the loud "SHWEEP!" of our FOY Great Crested Flycatcher.
