Hugh Barger joined Roi, Debbie, Bill, Jimmy and I, knowing it would be a difficult day to get on the hawks. I believe he saw a few, and got good looks at our Bald Eagles which want to fly around like Vultures, lately. 2 Flew south very high, and he wondered why we didn't just count them at least, but we felt pretty sure they were just the same Adult pair which played in every area of the sky today. We must have at least 2 Adult pairs, maybe 3. That's never really occurred before. Someone told Hugh that seeing one in this area was a little rare. They just haven't been to the Hawk watch in fall.
LOL
Our best kettle of BWs was 33 today.
Forgive the short post, just plain tired. LOL
Soooo many beautiful Butterflies. Just not enough Monarchs. Lot's of Gulf Fritilaries and Sulphurs. I think I spelled both of those wrong. Oh well, you know...Sorry. And a variety of wildflowers on the banks. Wild Ageratum is my fave.
There are times during these blue sky, hot days that we get a little listless, until someone gets on hawks. Would love to see it cool off just a bit.
The Barometric pressure has become our best friend..IF it is dropping. Wishing for a pressure around 30.10 and dropping early in the day tomorrow!
Come if you can...
And always, this time of year...
KEEP LOOKING UP!!!
