This evening at dusk I saw two Ross's Geese at Agate Bay. They
circled low over the boat landing about three times while giving
their distinctive call, which I had never heard before. They looked
like they landed in the grassy field between the boat landing and the
tugboat, but by the time I got over there to try and photograph them
they were gone.
There was a lot of migration along the North Shore all day today. I
stopped by Hawk Ridge this afternoon, and they were having their best
raptor flight of the season so far, with more than 12,000 Broad-wings
and a Swainson's Hawk. Hope we get a good flight for this weekend's
festivities.
