Bob reports 17 migrating raptors today.

Swainson’s Hawk 6
Cooper’s Hawk 1
Mississippi Kite 4
Swallow-tailed Kite 5
Northern Harrier 1

Strong south winds retarded the flight but 19 flyover Wilson’s Phalaropes and a single Dickcissel were nice fall migrants. Thanks to Joe Kennedy for his help today and for visitor’s David Sarkozi and John Berner.
