Hawk Sighting

Nothing much to write about for a while - had a great sighting today, though, of a Northern Harrier swooping around our backyard for about 5 seconds. Woulda missed it if I hadn't just coincidentally been looking out. We have had dozens of immature white-crowned sparrows, nuthatches, boreal and black-capped chickadees, juncos and pine siskins, coming into feed and drink, bathe, hang out. It's been a very busy month. Nothing very new or exciting. No kinglets for ages, and only a couple of sightings of myrtle's warblers.
