I decided to take a drive out to the eastern plains of El Paso Country this morning to see raptors and migrants. Despite the wind, it was a productive couple of hours! A few highlights: Saw dozens of northern mockingbirds and several flocks of western bluebirds blowing around in the strong winds, and a flock of brown-headed cowbirds taking shelter in a tree (perhaps not a highlight species, but still FOS migrants for me). Also watched my FOS Swanson's Hawk feeding on a fresh kill at the SW corner of the intersection between Squirrel Creek Road and Squirrel Creek Place.
