The highlights this month:
Seeing the whip-poor-will fly at dusk.
Observing the Red-breasted Nuthatch digging out its nest, spitting saw dust out the hole.
Finally finding the Eurasian Collared-Dove in Cape May.
Peter showing me the fledgling Great Horned Owl in Prospect Park.
And watching the Cattle Egret doing battle with a frog (or was it a toad?) yesterday at Brig.
And yet, the kvetch: Not a lot of warblers, still no night-herons, black or yellow-crowned. I'll get 'em next month.
