Hi all. I spent an hour outside watching the moon. I had 39 birds and 2 unidentified flying animals and 3 jets. The unidentified maybe bats, maybe birds, who knows. 37 birds headed South, one fluttered down and one headed North.
Most were simply bird sp. I had a few I could work with, I feel I saw some sandpipers, another Woodcock, as small heron possibly Green, a woodpecker and it had a shallow flap similar to Red headed flight. A couple flycatchers, a thrush type, 2 birds that appeared to have the shape of chimney swifts, but again I thought they were night roosting birds, so I don't know what else that could be close to swift in shape. I heard a Bobolink fly over head as well.
I am having allot of fun with this. I can only speculate to what I am seeing. Unless I hear it, but there is no way to hear the birds I am seeing because they are so far away.
