On Sept. 10 Steve Baker and Ed Pike were at Point LaBarbe from 10 am through 2:30 pm. The winds were again light from the east to south-east with mostly clear skies. We had a good movement of raptors with a steady stream of Bald Eagles and Turkey Vultures as well as a few other raptors. Most of the Raptors were flying very high, barely visible to the naked eye. The list is below:
Turkey Vulture 32
N. Harrier 1
Sharp-shinned Hawk 5
Cooper’s Hawk 1
Bald Eagle 29
Broad-winged Hawk 12
Am. Kestrel 1
