A good morning for watching raptors as we walked through the Point. Sharp-shinned and Cooper’s Hawks were changing direction with the easterly winds not providing the help to continue migration. Amazing views of an Osprey heading back out over the ocean with a fish had us wondering why as a Bald Eagle appeared chasing. The fish was dropped, breakfast lost. Leaders: Brett Ewald, Chris Marks, Catherine Busch, and Deb Payson.
