We had nice viewing skies today.. just not much to view ! My thanks to Brian Hardiman for his company and spotting help today !
We did have some nice looks at a few Bald Eagles and Sharpies. Also a gorgeous male Kestrel passed by the watch site on the reservoir side and perched in a snag just behind us. great looks at a gorgeous raptor. We recorded our first 2 Peregrines of the season with the 1:02pm Peregrine getting our Bird of the Day selection. A fine look at this bird on the reservoir side of the ridge just pumping all the way down ridge until out of sight.
