Went to go find the Copper's Hawks, and found the nest, but no hawks. Anyone know if they are still there? Good birds on the drive over:
FOTY Swallow-tailed Kites x4
Short-tailed Hawk
Osprey
American Kestrel
Turkey Vulture
Domestic Goose
Muskovy
Orange-winged Parrot
On the campus where I ate with my father at the food court outside near the pond with the fountains. We were greeted by the following:
Spot-breasted Oriole
Mourning Dove
Blue Jay
Starling
Mockingbird
Cardinal
Great Egret
D.C. Cormorant
White-winged Parakeet
For people familiar with U.M., I spotted three silent
amazons flying over the food court just west of the three Dorms. Ayone know what these are? Also, I heard of a flock of macaws that hang out in the palm trees near the lake. Are they able to see and what time?
Good birding.
