Birds are beginning their annual migration.. If you want to learn which birds came through your area last night check out this website.
It’s awesome! And if you’re fairly new to birding, you can scroll down on that page and see images of the birds that are likely passing by so that you’ll be able to recognize them when you see them. These birds are just passing through.
