For raptors we had Peregrine Falcon, Merlin, and Red-tailed Hawk. The flycatcher was 2 or 3, it was hard to tell how many as they were so active, Eastern Phoebes feeding at Halibut Point.
Here's a few of the pix from today;
This image was taken in the Friendlys parking lot.
The 1st year Peregrine Falcon is still on the job at City Hall. He has a little pile of feathers on ledge in front of him.
The Rock Pigeons were on the next ledge. They seemed to think they were safe.
From the Fish Peir we checked out various gulls including 2 Kumlien's Gulls.
This image of two females of different species huddled together on the rock struck me as odd.
John spotted this Red-tailed Hawk in the woods at Halibut Point. We had great looks and some families hiking through got to see him as well.
Forget about robins, if you were to poll local birders as to what is the true bird of spring, Eastern Phoebe would win hands down! These little flycatchers were delightful to watch as they snapped insects at Halibut Point
Spring is sprung! Enjoy!
