Today while watching from my window at the science center I was delighted
with a GREAT EGRET flying north then east. This indeed is a bird now
commonly reported at this time of the year, but is significant to me because
it's campus bird #164! Other recent new campus birds have been LOUISIANA
WATERTHRUSH, BARRED OWL, and EASTERN MEADOWLARK.

At about 7:30pm today while submitting my end-of-the-day ebird checklist, I
saw two CHIMNEY SWIFTS zip by heading northwest. Things are certainly
kicking into high gear!!


Good birding,

Sean
