Traveled to Farmington Bay Bird Refuge today. I wanted to find a place to sit and take photos of birds in flight to play around with my new Nikon Z9 camera. Not too many in flight and not in one spot. Although I did get a Harrier Hawk fly by as I sat in my Jeep. Beautiful day for a drive not so much for birding.
It was nice to get out in some beautiful weather.
Enjoy,
Steve

Beautiful set, Steve! No major migration yet?
Thanks for commenting. Not a migration that I noticed, it was real quiet except for seagulls and those little dark waterfowl that seem to populate the area.
I was quite impressed to see GBH sitting on the Eagles old dead tree branches.
