Of the 12 species of raptors seen at Lighthouse today, the Accipiterines stole the show. 223 Sharp-shinned and 367 Cooper's Hawks were tallied today, the best October one-day records since 2022 and 2019 respectively. Tomorrow brings insignificant NE winds, quickly going onshore. Be on the lookout for strong northerly winds later next week. There was a morning flight of 2800 Blue Jays. Many more may have entered the Park throughout the day, after the count ended at 8 am or so. Full details on eBird. Steve Mayo Guilford
