I wanted to post a big thank you to DFO and the monitors at Dinosaur Ridge for a great season! I look forward to the counts every day, and am always thrilled when I see the first Turkey Vultures returning. To me, that’s the start of Spring. This season, I’ve been wondering which bird species would get the greatest number of migrants: Red-tailed Hawks, American Kestrels, or Turkey vultures? I don’t know the numbers from past years, but I was surprised that the AMKE (490) beat out the RTHA (460) as of May 8. Thanks for the dedication of the monitors and the great reports. Welcome all the migrants!
