Birds On The Move

Fall migration appears to be getting underway. We just heard a report of about 50 Swainson’s hawks kettling early in the morning near Dixon and heading south. They’re at least a month or more early. And late this afternoon there was a flock of about several dozen swallows, probably tree, overhead and most likely migrating through. Soon there will be good shorebird action.
