An Osprey carries off its catch. Monday (17th) was a
great night for Osprey migration, with over 30 birds being observed. The
most seen at one time over the south lake was 12 individuals, with 8 to 9 the
norm. Also migrating that early evening were 300+ Franklin's Gulls, a
handful of Ring-billed Gulls and Caspian Terns, 33 Double-crested Cormorants, 4
Great Egrets, 100+ Turkey Vultures, 1 Sharp-shinned Hawk, and 1 Bald Eagle; all
seen within a 30-minute span. (The following day, I only spotted 1 Osprey.) (Wolf. Oesterreich, 9/17/18)
