- Comments: "‘Tis the season! Northbound over lake just before 8:30, initially very distant and high up, but gradually dropped down and picked up speed as it approached the peninsula and headed towards the Nethermead. Immature, with banded tail and splotchy underwings. Overall gray raptor with pointed wings and short P10. Photos."

"There is symbolic as well as actual beauty in the migration of the birds, the ebb and flow of the tides, the folded bud ready for spring." — Rachel Carson
