Strong southerly flow over the mid-Atlantic and Northeast pretty much shut down migration for the region last night. Birds were moving on the Central, Mississippi and the southern half of the Eastern flyway – but not here!The forecast is looking bright, though, as two cold fronts move through back-to-back over the next two days. We’ll see winds turn westerly tonight, and northwesterly on Friday through at least Tuesday! Birds will fly over us once more, and Cape May will be the place to be this weekend for nocturnal and diurnal migrants; so get ready to strap on your bino-bras and ogle some avifauna!

Good Birding
