Fog early with a west wind. Around noon the wind switched south and shut everything down except for the Peregrines which arrived just before 4:00pm. They don’t care which direction the wind is coming from! There were lots of Scissor-tailed Flycatchers today. It’s time! Sara Harrison helped out today.
