9/12/12

Another day of clear skies and south winds. Woo.

The first three hours and the last three hours really sucked, however the middle two were rather enjoyable.

17 CANG
1 MALL
13 NOPI
26 NSHO
382 BWTE (336 in the 4-5th hours. Today's flight puts the season total at 5,335!)
1 GBHE
1 WHIM (distant flyover in the 4th hour)
4 HUGU (came in from the NW in the 4th hour, as they neared the pier they quickly gained altitude until they were specs at 60X, then shot inland heading SE)
1 RUTU
19 SAND
1 Jaeger sp. (ho-hum, another day another jaeger. Distant PAJA type well out there)
11 BOGU
3 FOTE
3 COTE

There was nice mix of passerines in the parkinglot today, including 2 WIWA, 1 CMWA, 1 COYT, 1 BTNW, 3 PAWA, 1 YEWA, and 2 RBNU. And the first campus record of Dainty Sulphur, surprising only in the fact that I've been seeing them everywhere but here this year.
