Birds were on average farther today than any other day so far this season so lots of counting distant Red-tails occurred. Non-raptor Observations: The plague of Cave Swallows continues.... Predictions: More Cave Swallows ======================================================================== Report submitted by Cameron Cox (Kumlieni@gmail.com) Cape May information may be found at: http://BirdCapeMay.org
