Hi all,
No evidence of fallout in Gulf Breeze in spite of conditions. This is happening too often nowadays. Not like the "old days". Declining bird populations the culprit?

There appears to be a significant incoming transGulf flight already happening (light blue haze over water in image, which began appearing around 7am), therefore in position to be grounded by the rain that is just now hitting the coast (with a shift to headwinds hot on its heals).
By conventional wisdom, this is a good time to get out for migrants, starting immediately and perhaps building during the day. The north winds should keep birds overnight.
Good birding,
Peter
PS- reports from the coast would be nice, as conventional wisdom is not always on target!
