  • Comments:

    Three black vultures hung out around the lookout in the morning giving some great looks as they flew overhead while the resident turkey vultures showed off their speed as they took advantage of the strong winds. A couple of local red-tailed hawks also started their hunting nearby and performed some flight displays together. The last migrant of the season was a red-tailed hawk.
