Hi Peter,

Our Tuesday walk wasn't as active as last week's, but it was still interesting to notice some changes in migration over the last week. We had our first migrating raptors of the season, three Sharp-shinned and two Cooper's Hawks, heading SW over Lookout and the lake in the morning. The side-by-side comparisons were instructive. Our warbler count was 11 species, and a female Hooded Warbler in the sumac grove was the major highlight. And there was also a Gadwall on the lake.

We saw or heard 48 species. Here's our list: https://ebird.org/checklist/S273754002.

We'll be back next Tuesday. Thank you to Megan, Angie, and Sheila for co-leading and all the folks who joined us.

Ryan
