Wow, did the gang have a great count this day or what! Regular counters Bill and Mary Jo Collins tallied 234 raptors between 0800 and 1400, with the help of Chris Starling, Meta Little, Charlie Gant and Bob Hickman. There were also visitors from the Cecil Community College; a class of 4 Brazilian students accompanied by a staff member. Many of the migrants were apparently quite high during this flight as follows, oh, and another 3 falcon day, as well as an impressive count of Bald EAgles: TV-4, OS-3, BE-50 (16 adult, 34 imm), SS-140, CH-6, RT-1, AK-6, ME-7, PG-2, UR-15 A wonderful day at Turkey Point. Of course, I am in Canada missing all the action!
