Birded some on Middle Bass Island last Thursday (11-8)and Friday-(11-
9)not much waterfowl present as there were lots of duck hunters around 
also. Did see a Common Loon and Horned Grebe on the east side. Lots of 
Double-crested Cormorants passed by on Friday AM-took over five minutes 
for the large group to pass by low over the water.
     Pat Chrysler reported seeing 5 Red-tailed Hawks and 2 Bald Eagles 
flying south together over South Bass on Friday, November 9 around noon. 
There seem to be quite a few raptors and Turkey Vultures seen lately 
around the islands.
     On returning home this morning to South Bass Island, was delighted to 
see an Evening Grosbeak at my feeder (along with the usual Carolina Wren, 
numerous House Finches and House Sparrows) and about 20 Cedar Waxwings in 
the trees.
