Little Gap and Green Pond ~ October 26, 2024

I spent six hours at Little Gap watching the migration. Birds passing by included 10 Bald Eagles and a Golden Eagle, 10 Black Vultures, 17 Sharp-shinned Hawks, 4 Cooper's Hawks, 3 Northern Harriers, 19 Red-tailed Hawks, 2 Red-shouldered Hawks, an American Kestrel, 5 Common Ravens, and two groups containing a total of 97 Double-crested Cormorants.

I stopped on the way home and saw a Great Blue Heron at Green Pond. The retention pond across the road held 2 American Black Ducks and 3 Green-winged Teal. The fence surrounding the pond acted as perches for 8 Eastern Bluebirds, which one allowed me to get nice photos of.
