Hi folks,

Not a lot happening at Turkey Point yesterday from noon to
6.  About 50 raptors, mostly accipiters (Not a single
Broad-winged, after 1400 the previous day!)

But we did have a hummer and 2 nighthawks.

The Myrtles have begun to arrive at the Jug Bay Wetlands
Sanctuary migration station.  We also had our first
"yellow" Palm Warbler yesterday - got only the "westerns"
earlier this season.

Must have seen over 1000 Blue Jays at Turkey Point, but
only had one in the net at Jug bay.
