Drove 2.5hrs to the Lake Erie Metropark for the Detroit River Hawk Watch. Saw 52 species, 4 FOY birds. Not many hawks though. No broadwings.

Pleasant Hill Lake. It's been seen over the past 2 weeks here. The lake is really low and there are some great mud flats.

Might be too early in the #EFLFantasy season to try anything crazy, let's see how they do. Going 6 #wrexhamafc players in the @methewifewxm.bsky.social league.

Brandon Doup @brandondoup.bsky.social · Sep 12

Already planning. Thinking about waiting until the second week. Always a later wave of warblers coming in that I miss.

I had a body shop show concerns that my insurance company might think they are committing fraud. I hit 3 deer within a 3 month period, all required a new front bumper.

Stopped by Grange Audobon in Columbus today. Found a sora on a mudflat coming out the tall grass and a FOY greater yellow legs. Also several sandpipers, but too fat away to tell what kind.
