It was pretty good this morning with over 100 species seen.  Of note were marsh wren, hooded warbler, mourning warbler, and two chats.  There were a lot of birds migrating overhead.  Of note were 31 eastern kingbirds and 4300 blue jays.

There was also a nice movement of hawks and vultures.  Birds counted were turkey vulture 518, northern harrier 1, osprey 1, sharp-shinned 22, Cooper's hawk 1, red-shouldrred 1, broad-winged 14, red-tailed 9, and peregrine falcon 1.  Most of the buteos were immatures.  There were a couple loons on the lake and a flyby great egret.

Everything was seen from the Bluffs Trail west of Lane Road.
