Young Osprey are still around in good numbers, and we had four fishing over the big pond at CHC WMA this morning. Ruby-crowned Kinglets are starting to show up on migration and Red-breasted Nuthatches are being seen and heard daily; we had a small flock of four feeding in the pines overhead. We also saw increased numbers of Blue Jays and Northern Flickers.
