Yesterday was a great day for migration at the West Skyline Spring Count -- 326 Bald eagles pushed through during the day. Enjoy these photos from Frank Nicoletti and the count update from Marie below.![]()

"Superb flight, starting in force about an hour into the count, with multiple flight lines of eagles—some higher westside, some way out over the lake, and some right overhead, including one truly spectacular close Golden Eagle! As expected, birds got higher as afternoon came on, and by late afternoon lines of eagles could be picked out filing fairly high overhead (though never concerningly high). Despite the increased west/southwest winds, the lines seemed to shift more westside during the late afternoon, including a lone Sharp-shinned Hawk that spiraled up and out in the late afternoon sun. Thanks to everyone who came, pointed out birds, and enjoyed the spectacle!"![]()
