Well, I’m not sure what the net effect will be, but there was a little push of birds last night, and we did get some thunderstorms moving into the area early this morning. The radar loop is from sunset last night through 5:30 this morning. It’s hard to tell from the radar what, if any, […]

Winds are calm and out of the east, yet there’s a steady stream of migrants moving south this evening. Not a huge number, but hey, if the rain brings them down late tonight and tomorrow morning, we could see some good birding at sunrise. It’s tough to tell just yet where the best areas will […]

This one is tricky though, because although there appears to be a lot going on, most of the signal is not bird migration. Use the velocity plot as a “filter” to determine how much of the radar is actually bird migration. […]
